For dates:

LC Long = OSX Medium
no LC format for OSX Long or full

So if a user tells me he wants his dates in OS X medium or long format, I
can't find out what that is with LC code, same for an OS X long time.  I'm
hoping I will be able get hold of all the date/time formats with a shell
command or with Applescript but no luck yet.  I may have to ask the user to
define the formats again with my ap ( that goes back to the other thread
about duplicate object names!)

All I meant was that you already have most of them, and the ones that are missing are easy to construct. LiveCode provides all the data. For the LC formats that have no OS X equivalent, just don't use those. A quick function to construct the ones you do need would be pretty easy.
