language ordering (abbrv ?)

[Raphaël Droz]

language's order is neutral, but confusing as one can't use iso 3166 codes as "es".
Eg: nor "es" or "espanol" would match "spanish", but "es" would match "estonian".
Someone translating probably knows codes.
workaround : reorder languages.

[Oleksandr Manzyuk]

I'm somewhat reluctant to apply this patch because it really feels like a customization.

To support this idea, I chose not to cache the list of names of supported languages in a variable but recompute it every time it is needed. This way, you can customize google-translate-supported-languages-alist however you like (reorder it, add aliases for languages etc.) and have your changes reflected in the list of language names offered for completion at the interactive prompt.

Added this to my .emacs did the trick

(eval-after-load "google-translate" '
  (progn
    (setq google-translate-supported-languages-alist (delete '("Estonian". "et")  google-translate-supported-languages-alist))
    (setq google-translate-supported-languages-alist (add-to-list 'google-translate-supported-languages-alist '("Espanol" . "es")))
    ))

thx
