<hr/><a name="_details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
<p>The m17n database and API for it. </p>
<p>The m17n library acquires various kinds of information from data in the <em> m17n database</em> on demand. Application programs can also add/load their original data to/from the m17n database by setting the variable <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga29022d6905ce43de1ac69cd1f88b36f7" title="Directory for application specific data.">mdatabase_dir</a> to an application-specific directory and storing data in it. Users can overwrite those data by storing preferable data in the directory specified by the environment variable "M17NDIR", or if it is not set, in the directory "~/.m17n.d".</p>
<p>The m17n database contains multiple heterogeneous data, and each data is identified by four tags; TAG0, TAG1, TAG2, TAG3. Each tag must be a symbol.</p>
<p>TAG0 specifies the type of data stored in the database as below.</p>
<ul>
<li>If TAG0 is <a class="el" href="group__m17nChartable.html#ga91e88555aace667aa53a16e5fbb4226c" title="Symbol whose name is "char-table".">Mchar_table</a>, the data is of the <em>chartable</em> <em>type</em> and provides information about each character. In this case, TAG1 specifies the type of the information and must be <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga6592d4eb3c46fe7fb8993c252b8fedeb" title="Symbol whose name is "symbol".">Msymbol</a>, <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga0ce08eb57aa339db4d4745e75e80fdd8" title="Symbol whose name is "integer".">Minteger</a>, <a class="el" href="group__m17nSymbol.html#ga60daf7d600a1f487862366a37c171ce5" title="Symbol whose name is "string".">Mstring</a>, <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga1a22859374071a0ca66f12452afee8bd" title="Symbol whose name is "mtext".">Mtext</a>, or <a class="el" href="group__m17nPlist.html#ga933000e154873f9bfcaa56d976bd259b" title="Symbol whose name is "plist".">Mplist</a>. TAG2 and TAG3 can be any symbols.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>If TAG0 is <a class="el" href="group__m17nCharset.html#ga45426542709f174689a06ce7c34a37de" title="The symbol Mcharset.">Mcharset</a>, the data is of the <em>charset</em> <em>type</em> and provides a decode/encode mapping table for a charset. In this case, TAG1 must be a symbol representing a charset. TAG2 and TAG3 can be any symbols.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>If TAG0 is neither <a class="el" href="group__m17nChartable.html#ga91e88555aace667aa53a16e5fbb4226c" title="Symbol whose name is "char-table".">Mchar_table</a> nor <a class="el" href="group__m17nCharset.html#ga45426542709f174689a06ce7c34a37de" title="The symbol Mcharset.">Mcharset</a>, the data is of the <em>plist</em> <em>type</em>. See the documentation of the <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga62e5cf92d1b2836a9f6a988bcc20c26e" title="Load a data from the database.">mdatabase_load()</a> function for the details. In this case, TAG1, TAG2, and TAG3 can be any symbols.</li>
</ul>
<p>The notation <TAG0, TAG1, TAG2, TAG3> means a data with those tags.</p>
<p>Application programs first calls the <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#gaf0b925b48cf03873cf8cdb7b81a3c37d" title="Look for a data in the database.">mdatabase_find()</a> function to get a pointer to an object of the type <a class="el" href="group__m17nDatabase.html#ga185385212a1dcd2bbb8ec94ba31caf0e" title="Type of database.">MDatabase</a>.
