+// Package catalog defines collections of translated format strings.
+//
+// This package mostly defines types for populating catalogs with messages. The
+// catmsg package contains further definitions for creating custom message and
+// dictionary types as well as packages that use Catalogs.
+//
+// Package catalog defines various interfaces: Dictionary, Loader, and Message.
+// A Dictionary maintains a set of translations of format strings for a single
+// language. The Loader interface defines a source of dictionaries. A
+// translation of a format string is represented by a Message.
+//
+//
+// Catalogs
+//
+// A Catalog defines a programmatic interface for setting message translations.
+// It maintains a set of per-language dictionaries with translations for a set
+// of keys. For message translation to function properly, a translation should
+// be defined for each key for each supported language. A dictionary may be
+// underspecified, though, if there is a parent language that already defines
+// the key. For example, a Dictionary for "en-GB" could leave out entries that
+// are identical to those in a dictionary for "en".
+//
+//
+// Messages
+//
+// A Message is a format string which varies on the value of substitution
+// variables. For instance, to indicate the number of results one could want "no
+// results" if there are none, "1 result" if there is 1, and "%d results" for
+// any other number. Catalog is agnostic to the kind of format strings that are
+// used: for instance, messages can follow either the printf-style substitution
+// from package fmt or use templates.
+//
+// A Message does not substitute arguments in the format string. This job is
+// reserved for packages that render strings, such as message, that use Catalogs
+// to selected string. This separation of concerns allows Catalog to be used to
+// store any kind of formatting strings.
+//
+//
+// Selecting messages based on linguistic features of substitution arguments
+//
+// Messages may vary based on any linguistic features of the argument values.
+// The most common one is plural form, but others exist.
+//
+// Selection messages are provided in packages that provide support for a
+// specific linguistic feature. The following snippet uses plural.Select:
+//
+// catalog.Set(language.English, "You are %d minute(s) late.",
+// plural.Select(1,
+// "one", "You are 1 minute late.",
+// "other", "You are %d minutes late."))
+//
+// In this example, a message is stored in the Catalog where one of two messages
+// is selected based on the first argument, a number. The first message is
+// selected if the argument is singular (identified by the selector "one") and
+// the second message is selected in all other cases. The selectors are defined
+// by the plural rules defined in CLDR. The selector "other" is special and will
+// always match. Each language always defines one of the linguistic categories
+// to be "other." For English, singular is "one" and plural is "other".
+//
+// Selects can be nested. This allows selecting sentences based on features of
+// multiple arguments or multiple linguistic properties of a single argument.
+//
+//
+// String interpolation
+//
+// There is often a lot of commonality between the possible variants of a
+// message. For instance, in the example above the word "minute" varies based on
+// the plural catogory of the argument, but the rest of the sentence is
+// identical. Using interpolation the above message can be rewritten as:
+//
+// catalog.Set(language.English, "You are %d minute(s) late.",
+// catalog.Var("minutes",
+// plural.Select(1, "one", "minute", "other", "minutes")),
+// catalog.String("You are %[1]d ${minutes} late."))
+//
+// Var is defined to return the variable name if the message does not yield a
+// match. This allows us to further simplify this snippet to
+//
+// catalog.Set(language.English, "You are %d minute(s) late.",
+// catalog.Var("minutes", plural.Select(1, "one", "minute")),
+// catalog.String("You are %d ${minutes} late."))
+//
+// Overall this is still only a minor improvement, but things can get a lot more
+// unwieldy if more than one linguistic feature is used to determine a message
+// variant. Consider the following example:
+//
+// // argument 1: list of hosts, argument 2: list of guests
+// catalog.Set(language.English, "%[1]v invite(s) %[2]v to their party.",
+// catalog.Var("their",
+// plural.Select(1,
+// "one", gender.Select(1, "female", "her", "other", "his"))),
+// catalog.Var("invites", plural.Select(1, "one", "invite"))
+// catalog.String("%[1]v ${invites} %[2]v to ${their} party.")),
+//
+// Without variable substitution, this would have to be written as
+//
+// // argument 1: list of hosts, argument 2: list of guests
+// catalog.Set(language.English, "%[1]v invite(s) %[2]v to their party.",
+// plural.Select(1,
+// "one", gender.Select(1,
+// "female", "%[1]v invites %[2]v to her party."
+// "other", "%[1]v invites %[2]v to his party."),
+// "other", "%[1]v invites %[2]v to their party.")
+//
+// Not necessarily shorter, but using variables there is less duplication and
+// the messages are more maintenance friendly. Moreover, languages may have up
+// to six plural forms. This makes the use of variables more welcome.
+//
+// Different messages using the same inflections can reuse variables by moving
+// them to macros. Using macros we can rewrite the message as:
+//
+// // argument 1: list of hosts, argument 2: list of guests
+// catalog.SetString(language.English, "%[1]v invite(s) %[2]v to their party.",
+// "%[1]v ${invites(1)} %[2]v to ${their(1)} party.")
+//
+// Where the following macros were defined separately.
+//
+// catalog.SetMacro(language.English, "invites", plural.Select(1, "one", "invite"))
+// catalog.SetMacro(language.English, "their", plural.Select(1,
+// "one", gender.Select(1, "female", "her", "other", "his"))),
+//
+// Placeholders use parentheses and the arguments to invoke a macro.
+//
+//
+// Looking up messages
+//
+// Message lookup using Catalogs is typically only done by specialized packages
+// and is not something the user should be concerned with. For instance, to
+// express the tardiness of a user using the related message we defined earlier,
+// the user may use the package message like so:
+//
+// p := message.NewPrinter(language.English)
+// p.Printf("You are %d minute(s) late.", 5)
+//
+// Which would print:
+// You are 5 minutes late.
+//
