I think this is practically begging to be misinterpreted as "Spanish as=20
spoken in America (i.e., the United States)".  I'd prefer "es-americas".

Do we still interpret "ASCII" to mean US-ASCII?  If so:
    "espanol de America Latina"
otherwise:
    "espa=F1ol de Am=E9rica Latina"

BTW, my non-native-speaker intuition is telling me s/de/de la/ there.
