NAME
     libintl - internationalization library

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -lintl [ library... ]
     #include 
     #include  /* needed for dcgettext() only */


DESCRIPTION
     Historically, functions in this library provided wide  char-
     acter   translations.  This  functionality  now  resides  in
     libc(3LIB).


     This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility
     for  both  runtime  and compilation environments. The shared
     object is implemented as a filter on libc.so.1. New applica-
     tion development need not specify -lintl.

INTERFACES
     The shared object libintl.so.1 provides  the  public  inter-
     faces defined below. See Intro(3) for additional information
     on shared object interfaces.
