+""" Locale support.
+
+    The module provides low-level access to the C lib's locale APIs
+    and adds high level number formatting APIs as well as a locale
+    aliasing engine to complement these.
+
+    The aliasing engine includes support for many commonly used locale
+    names and maps them to values suitable for passing to the C lib's
+    setlocale() function. It also includes default encodings for all
+    supported locale names.
