If I want to jump between Arabic and English,I click on the English shortcut. Back to Arabic I click on the Arabic shortcut. To go to Greek I press the Greek shortcut keys. Back to French I click on the French shortcut key.

Instead of toggling between the languages and having to look at the result somewhere on the screen I have a shortcut key for the language without the hassle.

       So, this has to be a daemon, that scans current screen document and spawns a translation?. It seems the key function has to be built in to the top level of the software or at least have universal hooks for the ability.

       I read it as text input / system user interface language. Could be very useful for people working on a bi+lingual process.

       Windows has shortcut keys functionality for doing this.
