This is also a problem if the users can't set it on an app by app basis easily - I know we have a number of users who have their operating system set to one language, but choose to have several specific applications running in English.

Way back before Snow Leopard, I was able to test a localization by right-clicking on my application, and "un-checking" all of the languages except for the one I wanted to test.

Today, however, I see that portion of the "Get Info" window is missing. What do folks suggest for testing localization?

Just to make sure I wasn't running with a non-standard setup, I did some Googling, and was comforted to see this post from a month ago, describing exactly what I remember seeing under Leopard and before:

I'm launching it from Xcode passing the following as argument (change 'en' to the language you want to test):

-AppleLanguages ('en')

Note this it works for all Cocoa applications:

For example, try this in the terminal:

/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit -AppleLanguages "('fr')"
