DESCRIPTION

       The  package  doctools::msgcat  is  a  support  module handling the selection of message catalogs for the
       various document processing packages in the doctools system version 2. As such it is an internal  package
       a regular user (developer) should not be in direct contact with.

       If you are such please go the documentation of either

       [1]    doctools::doc,

       [2]    doctools::toc, or

       [3]    doctools::idx

       Within  the  system architecture this package resides under the various parser packages, and is shared by
       them. Underneath it, but not explicit dependencies, are the packages providing the message  catalogs  for
       the various languages.

API

       ::doctools::msgcat::init prefix
              The   command  locates  and  loads  the  message  catalogs  for  all  the  languages  returned  by
              msgcat::mcpreferences, provided that they could be found. It returns an integer number  describing
              how many packages were found and loaded.

              The    names    of    the    packages    the    command    will    look    for   have   the   form
              "doctools::msgcat::prefix::langcode", with prefix the argument to the command,  and  the  langcode
              supplied by the result of msgcat::mcpreferences.
