Locale controls the current program locale used for date, time, number, currency, and string conversion behavior.

Set_Locale selects a named locale or built-in locale preset. Individual DF_LOCALE_* attributes customize the active locale. Push_Locale and Pop_Locale save and restore the active locale settings for scoped changes.
