* Initial work to get proper uppercase support in languages other
than English.
* Added lockfile support, to prevent Tux Paint from being launched more
than once every 30 seconds. (Disable with "--nolockfile" command-line
argument.) Thanks to Darci Lindgren for suggestion the feature, and

HIGH-PRIORITY I18n STUFF:
-------------------------
* Non-ASCII characters (in translations) aren't uppercased when using
'--uppercase'. Example: In the Norwegian Nynorsk ('nn') translation
the top left icon is shown as 'MåLING' instead of 'MÅLING'.
To fix: Convert to wide chars, use 'towupper' instead of 'toupper',
and convert back to UTF-8. 'mbstowcs' and 'wcstombs' unfortunately
depend on on LC_CTYPE, so the encoding they use is locale dependent
(and *not* necessarily UTF-8, which our strings are in). On the other
hand, 'towupper' must be locale-aware for correct conversion (e.g. a
Turkish uppercase 'i' is *not* an 'I').
* Make sure characters are properly converted when using
'--uppercase' in locales that have uppercase letters.
Currently using 'mbstowcs' and 'wcstombs' to convert between
UFT-8 and wide chars, and using 'towupper' (instead of 'toupper') to
convert from lowercase to uppercase.
Karl says: "'mbstowcs' and 'wcstombs' unfortunately depend on on LC_CTYPE,

* Make right-to-left strings not wordwrap with the shortest line at
the top!
