Here are more consolidated answers to the original question from
Bertel Schmitt (73220.2562@CompuServe.COM):

      For a super-duper-urgent localization project I need a file with
      the following data:

      For (hopefully) each country on the planet:

           Language(s) (in local language i.e. Spanish = Espagnol)
           Time format (AM/PM,24 etc.)
           Date Format (ie. MM\DD\YY, DD.MM.YY, DD-MM-YY etc.)
           Currency Symbol (i.e. $, DM, Lit., HFL etc.)

Hm, here is a late Slovene response. Hope that past tense above can be a bit
extended.-)

Language: sloven\v{s}\v{c}ina
Time format (AM/PM,24 etc.):
  Usually HH:MM, where it goes from 0:01 to 24:00; there exist cases when one
  would use 12-hour notation, but then additional descriptions are added. E.g.
  17:00 == 5 popoldne, where "popoldne" means in the afternoon, etc.

Date Format:
  DD-MM-YY (everything in numbers);
  DD-MMM-YY (MMM is abbrevation for a name of month (see below));
  DD.Month YYYY (Month is full name of month or its abbrevation. If
    it's abbrevation, it ends with a dot ".");
  Name, DD.Month YYYY (Name is the name of a day in the week, complete
    or abbrevated -- see below. Again, if it's abbrevated it ends with
    a dot ".". Month is a full name of month)

Ok. The names of months and their TLAs are:

January		januar		JAN
February	februar		FEB
March		marec		MAR
April		april		APR
May		maj		MAJ
June		junij		JUN
July		julij		JUL
August		avgust		AVG
September	september	SEP
October		oktober		OKT
November	november	NOV
December	december	DEC

The TLAs can be written upper or lower case.

The names of days in a week with their abbrevations are:

Monday		ponedeljek	pon
Tuesday		torek		tor
Wednesday	sreda		sre
Thursday	\v{c}etrtek	\v{c}et
Friday		petek		pet
Saturday	sobota		sob
Sunday		nedelja		ned

Currency Symbol: SIT (means: Slovene tolar"

Ahem, I think 'Sonnabend' is the regional variation of Saturday.
