Before anyone replies, I don't need someone to go off and dig deep to find
the answer. I'm doing that myself. Just want to know if someone knows off
of the top of their head how to detect the current language of the file in
the current or specified code window (TextDocument) either based on a
property somewhere or maybe just by extension (which can be more difficult
if the file type is HTML or ASP/ASPX + scripting.

TextDocument.Language returns a string that indicates the language service.
