Thats what i though but here is my problem, and i'm sure im not the
only who has it. I am currently working on localizing apps for
mulitple languages. I would like to have an easy way to set the
locale without going into the system prefs and trying once again to
guess which settings i need to change to get my locale to zh_CN, or
zh_TW, KO or anything else.
Locale is not the same as localization. It sounds like what you are
interested in is localization. If you want to launch a specific
application instance in a specific localization, you can do so by
specifying command-line arguments. For example,
/Applications/TextEdit.app/Contents/MacOS/TextEdit -AppleLanguages
"(de)"
will launch TextEdit in German. You should also be able to set
command-line arguments in Xcode. The first argument here is -
AppleLanguages, the name of the default. The second is an array of
strings, so that you could (for example) use "(de,en)" to specify a
preference order of German first, English second. The quotes are for
the shell.
