Hi all,

Does anyone have any information on localising apps so that US users
read 'Colors, Localizations', and the British read 'Colours,
Localisation'?

[[NSBundle mainBundle] preferredLocalizations] seems to return
'English', rather than en_GB or en_US irrespective of the flag I've
chosen in the menu bar

Selecting a language from the menu bar only switches the keyboard
layout, not the system language. Have you tried rearranging the order
in the Language list in the International system preference pane?

I think that, strictly, English.lproj in "International English". Of course, everyone seems to default that to US English, which is okay really.

With ViaVoice, we put US English in English.lproj and British English (my doing) in en_GB.lproj.
