Reads a local copy of iso-639-3_Name_Index_YYYYMMDD.tab where (YYYYMMDD is the release date). Download that file
in zip form from http://www-01.sil.org/iso639-3/download.asp (use the UTF-8 zip)

useful lines in the file have the form:
<id>\t<name>\t<inverted name>\n
where:
<id> is the three-character ISO 639-3 language code
<name> is the language 'name'
<inverted name> is the language in 'last-name, first-name(s)' form; this part ignored

like this:
aaq Eastern Abnaki Abnaki, Eastern

when a language code has more than one name, the code is repeated for each additional name:
rar Cook Islands Maori Maori, Cook Islands
rar Rarotongan Rarotongan
