The original implementation created a Bundle from .lproj folder paths, but Bundle.localizedString() doesn't work on such pseudo-bundles since they lack proper bundle metadata (Info.plist, etc). This fix adds a custom .strings file parser that: - Handles both /* */ and // style comments - Properly parses "key" = "value"; format - Handles escaped characters (\", \n, \\) - Caches parsed strings for the user's preferred language The bug was latent since the original i18n PR (#27) and only manifested when a user explicitly set a non-system-default language preference.
