Thanks!
According wikipedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Punjabi
ISO 639-1 code is just "pa".
So do we need "-in" postfix?
Is there any other postfix for "pa"?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Actually yes, it would be good if we add the IN postfix in the language code because Punjabi is not only spoken in India but in some other countries too and differs in one way or the other. Moreover, if you take a look at projects like Ubuntu, Debian, Firefox, etc., you will notice that pa-IN is the code used for translation purposes.
Thank you.

Wikipedia:
"There are several different scripts used for writing the Punjabi language, depending on the region and the dialect spoken, as well as the religion of the speaker. The script used for writing Punjabi in the Punjab province of Pakistan is known as Shahmukhi (from the mouth of the Kings) which is a modified version of Persian-Nasta'liq script. Sikhs and others in the Indian state of Punjab use the Gurmukhī (from the mouth of the Gurus) script."
Do you use Gurmukhī?
What code we can use for Shahmukhi (if someone can translate to it)?
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:
Yes I'm using Gurmukhi and because of the difference in scripts for Punjabi language I suggested that we use the IN suffix (IN for India). Punjabi language spoken in India is written using Gurmukhi script. I think there is no ISO 639-1 code defined for Punjabi (written using Shahmukhi script). I dont know the reason why.
- What code we can use for Shahmukhi (if someone can translate to it)?
The answer to this question, in my opinion, is to use ISO 639-3 codes which defined the code 'pan' for Indian Punjabi (Gurmukhi Script) and 'pnb' for Pakistan Punjabi (Shahmukhi script).
If you dont want to upgrade to ISO 639-3 codes, I suggest you allow the use of pa-IN code for Indian Punjabi, and pa-PK code for Pakistan Punjabi.
One more thing, if you follow this link ( http://people.w3.org/rishida/utils/subtags/ ) and in front of SEARCH FOR SUBTAGS, write PA-IN, you will notice that the search result comes out as LANGUAGE: Punjabi, REGION: India
Now replace PA-IN with PA-PK (in front of SEARCH FOR SUBTAGS), the result will now come as LANGUAGE: Punjabi, REGION: Pakistan.
Hope it helps.

I've added:
00000002 = "70-1"
It can help to detect default language at start time.
Remove "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\7-Zip\Lang" registry item at first for testing.
- If what you mean is a Language Interface Pack for Punjabi, then yes, it's
available.
Is there such pack for pa-pk?
And do you have "Punjabi" options in Control Panel \ Regional Options \ Standarts and formats?

But is there any another real postfix (in some specification) or some real translation file with another postfix?

No.
May be we can safely remove the IN post-suffix (as of now).

Ok. I'll use pa-in.
BTW, Is there localized Windows for Punjabi?
