This module is a simple wrapper around Locale::Maketext::Lexicon, designed to alleviate the need of creating Language Classes for module authors.

The language used is chosen from the loc_lang call. If a lookup is not possible, the i-default language will be used. If the lookup is not in the i-default language, then the key will be returned.

If Locale::Maketext::Lexicon is not present, it implements a minimal localization function by simply interpolating [_1] with the first argument, [_2] with the second, etc. Interpolated function like [quant,_1] are treated as [_1], with the sole exception of [tense,_1,X], which will append ing to _1 when X is present, or appending ed to <_1> otherwise.
