I'm trying to display a localized list of attached displays, and getting
unexpected results in Carbon and Cocoa when attempting to determine the best
localization. I did all the obvious-to-me Google searches without finding much
except a couple of other people over the years having similar issues and no
real resolution. Sample code and results follow. Hoping someone can point me in
the right direction.
FWIW, I've tried both "en" and "English" for both the Info.plist development
region and the localized resources folder in the app.
Thanks for any help.

NSUserDefaults* theDefaults = [NSUserDefaults standardUserDefaults];
NSArray* theUserSettings = [theDefaults objectForKey:@"AppleLanguages"];
NSLog(@"User Settings: %@", theUserSettings);

NSArray* theBestOnes = [NSBundle preferredLocalizationsFromArray:inChoices];
NSLog(@"Chose: %@", theBestOnes);
return [theBestOnes objectAtIndex:0];
