I use the following settings in the app configuration file:

'View::TT' => {
    PRE_PROCESS => ['locale_date_datetime.tt'],
};

And in the template locale_date_datetime.tt I put:

[% MACRO l(text,args) BLOCK; c.localize(text,args) || text; END ~%]

This template is loaded automaticly and in any other template I can use:

[% l('Text to translate') %]

or

 [% l('Text to [_1] translate [_2]', [var1, var2]) %]

In the same template locale_date_datetime.tt I also use other global macros 
for printing the DateTime dates in different formats so it can be used for 
other things also...
