      This information is retrived by nllanginfo.

      The items CRNCYSTR, RADIXCHAR and THOUSEP are extracted from the fields
      currencysymbol, decimalpoint and thousandssep in the structure
      returned by localeconv.

      The items TFMT, DFMT, DTFMT, YESSTR and NOSTR are retrived from a
      special message catalog named Xopeninfo which should be generated for
      each locale supported and installed in the appropriate directory [see
      gettxt(3C) and mkmsgs(1M)].  This catalog should have the messages in the
      order TFMT, DFMT, DTFMT, YESSTR and NOSTR.

      All other items are as returned by strftime.
