User's language

[Phil Davis]

Hi John,

Not sure if this gives the absolutely authoritative info about the 
system's language, but it should be at least semi-authoritative:

On a Mac:
put shell("locale") into tMyInfo
-- then look for the line in tMyInfo that starts with "LANG="

on Windows (at least Win7):
put shell("systeminfo") into tMyInfo
-- then look for the line in tMyInfo that starts with "System Locale:"

I understand including the ".lproj" indicates which languages you intend to support, but how do I determine the language that the user currently has his computer set for?  A search of the dictionary seems to indicate that this information is available for mobile but I can't find any entries for the desktop.
