Things get blurry with things like spreadsheet formulas, where there
are end users writing formulas who are definitely not software
developers and certainly shouldn't have to know English to use the
tool. But there is also no dictionary support in Numbers for
accessing the formula functions, so the fact that function names are
different across locales makes it harder to share Numbers-targeting
Applescript code.
Some weeks ago I posted a complicated script.
It is required for those using iWok '09 components in a language
which is not matching the language used by the operating system.
For those using the application with the system setting, it's really
easy to get the localized functions name:
<script>
set ISBLANK_loc to my getLocalizedFuncName("ISBLANK")
set VLOOKUP_loc to my getLocalizedFuncName("VLOOKUP")
--=====
on getLocalizedFuncName(x)
return localized string x from table "Localizable" in bundle file
((path to application support as text) & "iWork
'09:Frameworks:SFTabular.framework:Versions:A:Resources:")
end getLocalizedFuncName
--=====
<script>
On a French system it returns:
tell current application
path to application support as text
"Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:"
localized string "ISBLANK" from table "Localizable" in bundle file
"Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:iWork
'09:Frameworks:SFTabular.framework:Versions:A:Resources:"
"ESTVIDE"
path to application support as text
"Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:"
localized string "VLOOKUP" from table "Localizable" in bundle file
"Macintosh HD:Library:Application Support:iWork
'09:Frameworks:SFTabular.framework:Versions:A:Resources:"
"RECHERCHEV"
end tell
