- catopen ?-fail|-nofail? catname
- Open the message catalog catname. This may be a rela-
- tive path name, in which case the NLSPATH environment
- variable is searched to find an absolute path to the
- message catalog. A handle in the form msgcatN is
- returned. Normally, errors are ignored, and in the
- case of a failed call to catopen, a handle is returned
- to an unopened message catalog. (This handle may still
- be passed to catgets and catclose, causing catgets to
- simply return the default string, as described above.
- If the -fail option is specified, an error is returned
- if the open fails. The option -nofail specifies the
- default behavior of not returning an error when catopen
- fails to open a specified message catalog.
