-.TH BINDTEXTDOMAIN 3 "May 2001" "GNU gettext @VERSION@"
-.SH NAME
-bindtextdomain \- set directory containing message catalogs
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.nf
-.B #include <libintl.h>
-.sp
-.BI "char * bindtextdomain (const char * " domainname ", const char * " dirname );
-.fi
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-The \fBbindtextdomain\fP function sets the base directory of the hierarchy
-containing message catalogs for a given message domain.
-.PP
-A message domain is a set of translatable \fImsgid\fP messages. Usually,
-every software package has its own message domain. The need for calling
-\fBbindtextdomain\fP arises because packages are not always installed with
-the same prefix as the <libintl.h> header and the libc/libintl libraries.
-.PP
-Message catalogs will be expected at the pathnames
-\fIdirname\fP/\fIlocale\fP/\fIcategory\fP/\fIdomainname\fP.mo,
-where \fIlocale\fP is a locale name and \fIcategory\fP is a locale facet such
-as \fBLC_MESSAGES\fP.
-.PP
-\fIdomainname\fP must be a non-empty string.
-.PP
-If \fIdirname\fP is not NULL, the base directory for message catalogs belonging
-to domain \fIdomainname\fP is set to \fIdirname\fP. The function makes copies
-of the argument strings as needed. If the program wishes to call the
-\fBchdir\fP function, it is important that \fIdirname\fP be an absolute
-pathname; otherwise it cannot be guaranteed that the message catalogs will
-be found.
-.PP
-If \fIdirname\fP is NULL, the function returns the previously set base
-directory for domain \fIdomainname\fP.
-.SH "RETURN VALUE"
-If successful, the \fBbindtextdomain\fP function returns the current base
-directory for domain \fIdomainname\fP, after possibly changing it. The
-resulting string is valid until the next \fBbindtextdomain\fP call for the
-same \fIdomainname\fP and must not be modified or freed. If a memory allocation
-failure occurs, it sets \fBerrno\fP to \fBENOMEM\fP and returns NULL.
-.SH ERRORS
-The following error can occur, among others:
-.TP
-.B ENOMEM
-Not enough memory available.
-.SH BUGS
-The return type ought to be \fBconst char *\fP, but is \fBchar *\fP to avoid
-warnings in C code predating ANSI C.
