I assume you mean language (grammar)?

This API is not set in stone, but there is a BundleManager singleton class. You can get the class object using:

    Class cl = [[NSBundle mainBundle] classNamed:@"BundleManager"];

Then to get the instance use this class method:

    + (BundleManager*)sharedInstance;

This object has the following method:

    - (NSArray*)languages;

This gives you an array of all languages, the actual objects are bundle items and respond to:

    - (NSString*)name;
    - (NSString*)UUID;

This is the display name, but I assume this is what you want to compare against.

When you have found the language you want to change to, the OakTextView has the following method:

    - (void)changeLanguageTo:(id)anUUID andLearn:(BOOL)flag;

Here you give the UUID of the language and give NO as flag. The flag tells if it should learn the association, i.e. if files with the current extension should forever be tied to the given language.
