OK, that makes perfect sense. But then you don't really want to know the
PATH to the tables. Instead you want to know the tables, i.e. the tables
that you as an Orca user can use. So no dis tables, no include tables,
etc. And all of this of course with a nice (translatable) name. This
seems to come back to the age old discussion of the mapping between iso
language code, grade, number_of_dots and liblouis table file. Maybe we
should offer an API to query this instead.
Thanks
