I'm trying to display a localized list of attached displays, and getting unexpected results in Carbon and Cocoa when attempting to determine the best localization. I did all the obvious-to-me Google searches without finding much except a couple of other people over the years having similar issues and no real resolution. Sample code and results follow. Hoping someone can point me in the right direction.
FWIW, I've tried both "en" and "English" for both the Info.plist development region and the localized resources folder in the app.
Thanks for any help.

{
NSUserDefaults* theDefaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSArray* theUserSettings = [theDefaults objectForKey:@"AppleLanguages"];
NSLog(@"User Settings: %@", theUserSettings);
NSLog(@"Choices: %@", inChoices);
NSArray* theBestOnes = [NSBundle preferredLocalizationsFromArray:inChoices];
NSLog(@"Chose: %@", theBestOnes);
return [theBestOnes objectAtIndex:0];
}
