      We need a way to control keyboard language in Java. For example, let's say we have Arabic or
      Hebrew Windows 95, with keyboard that supports Arabic along with English characters.
      Win32 provides APIs to query and switch the keyboard layout to Arabic or English.
      What we need is to have access to this functionality from java. This is very important for the
      implementation of multi-lingual software.

      More specificaly, we need the following two functions:
      static int getKeyboardLanguage();
      void setKeyboardLanguage(int langID);
