<para>
An X Locale Database contains the subset of a user's environment that
depends on language, in X Window System. It is made up from one or more
categories. Each category consists of some classes and sub-classes.
</para>
<para>
It is provided as a plain ASCII text file, so a user can change its
contents easily. It allows a user to customize the behavior of
internationalized portion of Xlib without changing Xlib itself.

<para>
Since it is hard to define the set of required information for all
platforms, only the flexible database format is defined.
The available entries in database are implementation dependent.

<sect1 id="Database_Format_Definition">
<title>Database Format Definition</title>
<para>
The X Locale Database contains one or more category definitions.
This section describes the format of each category definition.
</para>
<para>
The category definition consists of one or more class definitions.
Each class definition has a pair of class name and class value, or
has several subclasses which are enclosed by the left brace ({) and
the right brace (}).
</para>
<para>
Comments can be placed by using the number sign character (#).
Putting the number sign character on the top of the line indicates
that the entire line is comment. Also, putting any whitespace character
followed by the number sign character indicates that a part of the line
(from the number sign to the end of the line) is comment.
A line can be continued by placing backslash (\) character as the
last character on the line; this continuation character will be
discarded from the input. Comment lines cannot be continued on
a subsequent line using an escaped new line character.
</para>
<para>
X Locale Database only accepts XPCS, the X Portable Character Set.
The reserved symbols are; the quotation mark("), the number sign (#),
the semicolon(;), the backslash(\), the left brace({) and
the right brace(}).
</para>
<para>
The format of category definition is;

<para>
Elements separated by vertical bar (|) are alternatives. Curly
braces ({...}) indicate zero or more repetitions of the enclosed
elements. Square brackets ([...]) indicate that the enclosed element
is optional. Quotes ("...") are used around literal characters.
</para>
<para>
The backslash, which is not the top character of the NumericString, is
recognized as an escape character, so that the next one character is
treated as a literal character. For example, the two-character
sequence, ""\"""(the backslash followed by the quotation mark) is
recognized and replaced with a quotation mark character.
Any whitespace character, that is not the Delimiter, unquoted and
unescaped, is ignored.

<para>
The available categories and classes depend on implementation, because
different platform will require different information set.
For example, some platform have system locale but some platform don't.
Furthermore, there might be a difference in functionality even if the
platform has system locale.
