SYNOPSIS
     #include <nl_types.h>

     char *
     catgets(nl_catd catd, int set_id, int msg_id, const char *s);

DESCRIPTION
     The catgets() function attempts to retrieve message msg_id of set set_id from the message catalog referenced by the descriptor catd.  The
     argument s points to a default message which is returned if the function is unable to retrieve the specified message.

     wise it returns s.

ERRORS
     [EBADF]		The catd argument is not a valid message catalog descriptor.

     [EBADMSG]		The message identified by set_id and msg_id is not in the message catalog.
