{Country Codes for Use with jldb.tcl
This is a list of country codes for specifying a user's language preference in jstools applications or applications that use the jstools libraries.  It's based on the two­letter country (or region) codes used as top­level Internet domains.  They are based in turn on the ISO 3166:1988 standard for representing country names, with the difference that uk (United Kingdom) is used in place of gb (Great Britain).

I got this list from a posting to the comp.std.internat newsgroup; unfortunately, I've lost the information about who compiled it.  Also, it's somewhat out of date, particularly as regards Eastern Europe.  If you have a more current list, or better yet, a URL for a version of this list that's kept up­to­date, please send me mail at <js@aq.org> and let me know about it.
