Xlib Dependencies

X locale supports one or more of the locales defined by the host environment. Direct XlibTM conforms to the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) C library and the locale announcement method is the setlocale() function. This function configures the locale operation of both the host C library and Xlib. The operation of Xlib is governed by the LC_CTYPE category; this is called the current locale. The XSupportsLocale() function is used to determine whether the current locale is supported by X.
