Question

Sets the current locale of the program.
locale is a string specifying a locale;
category is an optional string describing which category to change:
"all", "collate", "ctype",
"monetary", "numeric", or "time";
the default category is "all".
The function returns the name of the new locale,
or nil if the request cannot be honored.

When called with nil as the first argument,
this function only returns the name of the current locale
for the given category.
