The Marathon Engine used Macintosh STR# resources for all messages. Aleph Bet has inherited a mechanism that's basically identical. Strings are obtained by set index and string index.
Using a more modern localization system (such as Project Fluent) would make adding new strings easier. If Unicode is also adopted, we may start seeing translation plugins (for everything but terminal text).
