Well, what about a kiosk system ? The very volatile user of this app sits down in front of the (may be full screen) welcome window where countries icons are waiting for him - the volatile user - to choose from : the user-traveller clicks the country-icon of its choice, that's all to say and to do to say Jeff question is a real question.

I believe I already mentioned that kiosks were a good reason to do something like this. But you don't have to make your kiosk using a single program; you could have a language selector program, which then starts the main kiosk program with the -AppleLanguages switch (remember, defaults work as switches on the command line). The user need not know that they are two separate programs, and you avoid the whole issue of having to make a program switch on the fly, which would be hard for the framework to support in a general way currently.


Kind regards,

Alastair.
