langcode
package.
Summary description: language-dependent settings based on language codes
License type: lppl
Announcement text:
----------------------------------------------------------------------
`langcode.sty' in the first instance provides a command
\uselangcode{<chars>}
to adjust language-dependent settings, such as key words,
typographical conventions, and language codes (ISO-639-1).
An author frequently writing documents in two or more languages
can use the same commands independently of the language,
provided they are gathered in a list macro to be used by the
`dowith' package. If `\<cmd>' is in the list, it is set to work
like `\<chars><cmd>', and a macro `\langcode' will expand to
<chars> (the respective tokens), usable in URLs.
The package is ``generic," based on `plainpkg'. The code has
been used with `morehype' and `catchdq' (`catcodes'), but may
be useful more generally.
