.SH "DESCRIPTION"
.IX Header "DESCRIPTION"
The module \fBLocale::gettext_xs\fR is the low-level interface to 
message translation according to the Uniforum approach that is
for example used in \s-1GNU\s0 gettext and Sun's Solaris.
.PP
The module does not necessarily work on your system.  It depends
on the presence of shared libraries that are not always available.
The higher-level modules \fILocale::TextDomain::\fR\|(3), resp. 
\&\fILocale::Messages\fR\|(3) will fall back to a pure Perl version if 
boostrapping \fBLocale::gettext_xs\fR fails.
.PP
The interface of \fBLocale::gettext_xs\fR is mostly identical to the pure 
Perl version as described in \fILocale::gettext_pp\fR\|(3), see there for details.
Differences are outlined below.
.PP
\&\fBLocale::gettext_xs\fR is downwards compatible to \fILocale::gettext\fR\|(3)
by Phillip Vandry <vandry@Mlink.NET>.  You can use it as replacement
for \fILocale::gettext\fR\|(3).
.PP
Please note that directory names passed to the function \fIbindtextdomain()\fR
are automatically converted from Perl semantics (slash as directory
separator) to local semantics (for example the backslash for MS-DOS).
