Hi:
I think I remember reading about how Languages were handled in WindowEyes Scripting via the xml file.
I can't find that article or document again.
I have 2 questions in preparation of a script and Article on this:
Question 1:
In the following statement where does Windoweyes get the WE and the OS values from and
how are they related, if at all, to the following Properties?
WE,OS,en-us
I am wondering about which object below, if either, is related to the WE and the OS values or placeholders.
CurrentLanguage
Returns a Language enum indicating the current Window-Eyes language.
CurrentLocaleID
Returns a value indicating the current Window-Eyes language identifier.

Question 2:
The following opening tag starts the entries for a given language.

Would I use the string value of any language not in the WindowEyes listed enums in the above statement or it's numeric value?
If you think of anything else that might be related to the above xml objects like the
Location Method of the Utilities Object, if it is related,
could you let me know?
Thanks:
