Localizing Messages with a property-file type resource bundle

        
/*
MyResources_en.properties:

    hello=Hello
    bye=Goodbye

MyResources_fr.properties:

    hello=Bonjour
    bye=Au Revoir

A base name and desired locale is specified. 
The system looks in the classpath for a file whose name matches one of the following patterns in order:
    
basename_locale.properties
basename.properties
basename_defaultLocale.properties

Given the base name MyResources, a locale of fr, and a default locale of en, the system first looks for

    MyResources_fr.properties
    MyResources.properties
    MyResources_en.properties

    System.out.println(s);
