Overview

Localizer provides a slightly easier way of hooking into the depths of Rails’ Internationalization functionality.

By default, it allows you to specify the human name (with plurality), human attribute names, and any custom error messages on both a per-model and per-attribute level via a simple hash… rather than having to worry about exactly where things  get nested in .YAML files.

It takes a bit of explaining to start with, but should be way nicer in the long-run =)
