Good idea. Thanks. Do you know if this is would work for all OS versions?
I *think* it worked for 8.5, too. I don't know for earlier versions,
because I started scripting with MacOS 8.5.
Also, do you know where I might get a list of what letters are used for each
language/region?
sorry, I don't.
I was actually thinking more along the lines of being able to query the
system to find out what script was being used. Since it's possible to use
multiple languages on a single machine,
Is it? could you please elaborate? I thought that the OS has one and
only one language at a given time. Are you referring to more than
startup volumes, holding system folders in different languages? I'm a
bit confused about that

it would be nice to be able to
supply multiple languages in my script and to be able to automatically
switch to the appropriate language based on the script in use on the host
system. Any more ideas?
