Appendix E  Native Language Support 

Transact provides access to MPE native language support (NLS) at compile
time and at run time.  NLS is used to adapt programs to other languages
by providing message catalogs, collating sequences, data formats, and
numerical formats specific to a particular language.  The default
language is NATIVE-3000, which consists of the language attributes of the
HP 3000 prior to NLS.
