=head1 NAME

I18N::LangTags::Detect - detect the user's language preferences

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use I18N::LangTags::Detect;
  my @user_wants = I18N::LangTags::Detect::detect();

=head1 DESCRIPTION

It is a common problem to want to detect what language(s) the user would
prefer output in.

=head1 FUNCTIONS

This module defines one public function,
C<I18N::LangTags::Detect::detect()>.  This function is not exported
(nor is even exportable), and it takes no parameters.

In scalar context, the function returns the most preferred language
tag (or undef if no preference was seen).

In list context (which is usually what you want),
the function returns a
(possibly empty) list of language tags representing (best first) what
languages the user apparently would accept output in.  You will
probably want to pass the output of this through
C<I18N::LangTags::implicate_supers_tightly(...)>
or
C<I18N::LangTags::implicate_supers(...)>, like so:

  my @languages =
    I18N::LangTags::implicate_supers_tightly(
      I18N::LangTags::Detect::detect()
    );


=head1 ENVIRONMENT

This module looks for several environment variables, including
REQUEST_METHOD, HTTP_ACCEPT_LANGUAGE,
LANGUAGE, LC_ALL, LC_MESSAGES, and LANG.

It will also use the L<Win32::Locale> module, if it's installed.


=head1 SEE ALSO

L<I18N::LangTags>, L<Win32::Locale>, L<Locale::Maketext>.

(This module's core code started out as a routine in Locale::Maketext;
but I moved it here once I realized it was more generally useful.)
