NAME
     stringprep_locale_charset - return charset used  in  current
     locale

SYNOPSIS
     #include 

     const char * stringprep_locale_charset( void);

ARGUMENTS
      void

DESCRIPTION
     Find out current locale charset.  The function  respect  the
     CHARSET    environment    variable,   but   typically   uses
     nl_langinfo(CODESET) when it is supported.  It fall back  on
     "ASCII" if CHARSET isn't set and nl_langinfo isn't supported
     or return anything.

     Note that this function return  the  application's  locale's
     preferred  charset  (or thread's locale's preffered charset,
     if your system support thread-specific  locales).   It  does
     not  return  what  the  system  may  be using.  Thus, if you
     receive data from external sources you cannot in general use
     this  function  to guess what charset it is encoded in.  Use
     stringprep_convert from the external representation into the
     charset  returned  by  this  function,  to  have data in the
     locale encoding.

RETURN VALUE
     Return the character set used by  the  current  locale.   It
     will never return NULL, but use "ASCII" as a fallback.
