Do you know of a good program for editing/translating resource (.rc) files?

Question

I'm building a C++/MFC program in a multilingual environment. I have one main (national) language and three international languages. Every time I add a feature to the program I have to keep the international languages up-to-date with the national one. The resource editor in Visual Studio is not very helpful because I frequently end up leaving a string, dialog box, etc., untranslated.

I wonder if you guys know of a program that can edit resource (.rc) files and

• Build a file that includes only the strings to be translated and their respective IDs and accepts the same (or similar) file in another language (this would be helpful since usually the translation is done by someone else), or
• Handle the translations itself, allowing to view the same string in different languages at the same time.

Check out Lingobit Localizer. Expensive, but well worth it.
