Does anyone know of a way to scan a file and identify the language?

Hello!

I don't think that's posiable, because if no
identification for file so the ascii would
say nothing about which is the language.
You can only try to use spell for difrent
language but it depend if now mistakes in the
text and this is not so good.

Sorry Rich for the first
msg, wrong page is pop out.

For what i explain about spell so you
can use module for perl called Lingua Ident
http://search.cpan.org/author/MPIOTR/Lingua-Ident-1.4/

That to this on perl (it could help)

Good luck
