Locale is the wrapping object for the locale library, the library that
'localizes' programs, i.e. more than one language is available.

The locale object of the oomodules/ hierarchy doesn't enhance the usage
of libraries very much - at least not at this basic level. There are
derived objects that use this object as a 'foundation', e.g. the catalogList
object.


There  are two examples, the first @{" example " link EMODULES:oomodules/library/locale/test.e/main} shows the basic functions
and the @{" second " link EMODULES:oomodules/library/locale/testObjectString.e/main} gets strings from one of ooep's object catalogs.

There is an @{" autodoc " link EMODULES:oomodules/oodoc/guides/locale/main} file available or this object.
