+.BR LC_\fIfoo\fP ,
+.BR LANG ,
+in that order.

+For example, if
+.B LC_ALL
+is not set, but
+.B LC_MESSAGES
+is set to
+.BR pt_BR ,
+then the Brazilian Portuguese locale is used for the
+.B LC_MESSAGES
+category.
+The C locale is used if none of these environment variables are set,
+if the locale catalog is not installed, or if
