You're perfectly right ! I just forgot this one (duh
me !!)

That's exactly what I've done this day !
I removed all the macros system
and I've just used numbers to refer to strings.
Like as in user32 code (thanks to Dimi's suggestion),
all menus are defined entierely in separate files.

Now the only thing we have to do when translating is
to copy the En.rc and change the LANG_ENGLISH
statement.
When it will compile and run (I'm rewriting the
LoadMenus fonctions, was LANGUAGE_SelectByNumber),
I will then rewrite the other ??.rc files that are
currently in wine.
