localizedZone = lib:GetLocalizedZone(zone)

lib.RegisterCallback(handler, callback, method, arg)

• handler - table/string: your addon object or another table containing a function at handler[method], or a string identifying your addon
• callback - string: the name of the callback to be registered
• method - string/function/nil: a key into the handler table, or a function to be called, or nil if handler is a table and a function exists at handler[callback]
• arg - a value to be passed as the first argument to the callback function specified by method

• If handler is a table, method is a string, and handler[method] is a function, then that function will be called with handler as its first argument, followed by the callback name and the callback-specific arguments.
• If handler is a table, method is nil, and handler[callback] is a function, then that function will be called with handler as its first argument, followed by the callback name and the callback-specific arguments.
• If handler is a string and method is a function, then that function will be called with the callback name as its first argument, followed by the callback-specific arguments.
• If arg is non-nil, then it will be passed to the specified function. If handler is a table, then arg will be passed as the second argument, pushing the callback name to the third position. Otherwise, arg will be passed as the first argument.

lib.UnregisterCallback(handler, callback)

• handler - table/string: your addon object or a string identifying your addon
• callback - string: the name of the callback to be unregistered

• oldZone - string: the previous zone type, see GetZone
