C version of Externalize String ? [message #208744]

Is there C version of "Externalize String" being developed?
In Java, Eclipse shows Source > Externalize String, which
interactively wraps the liteeral strings in the source file
and moves the string to the property file.

C/C++ equivalent of this functionality would modify lines like:
printf("Hello, %s!\n", name);
to:
printf(gettext("Hello, %s!\n"), name);
and generate a .po file
msgid Hello, %s!\n
msgtext Hello, %s!\n
or something equivalent for other messaging schemes like catgets.

If there is nothing like this in CDT, does anyone know of any
similar tool that works for C and C++?
