\language "foobar"
So I thought, but here's a way to do it anyway: see attached
patch.
Well, I tried it under Windows Vista and it seems to work fine, at
least
on a simple test with english.ly. I can't vouch for the purity of
the coding
though, and of course we'll need some doc changes, reg test, and
a convert-ly change.
It doesn't work for arabic.ly, as you say, nor for bagpipe.ly, but
as
neither of those are languages (arabic.ly is for Arabic music rather
than the Arabic language) I don't think that's a problem. All
genuine
language files should be OK.
As a way of introducing the improved syntax this LGTM.
