Function Details

Translate text via the translate.google.com service.

The source language is given by 'from_lang' and the target language as 'to_lang'. 'text' must be a unicode or UTF-8 encoded string.

Get the list of accepted languages, by order of preference.

THis is based on the HTTP Accept-Language string. See W3C RFC 2616 (http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html) for specification.

Get the user locale.

This is done using _get_locale or an app-specific locale lookup function.

Raises an error if session support is not enabled.
