 LOCALIZATION[[L]]
 -----------------
-Various locales may be enabled in /etc/locale.gen, and generated by locale-gen. The system-wide locale to be used
-can be configured in /etc/locale.conf. These settings can be overridden on a per-user basis by keeping a
-user-specific locale.conf in $HOME/.config/locale.conf. The user-specific file will take precedence if it exists.
