    tmac/troffrc: Derive groff locale from system.
    
    Determine the groff locale (default input language) using the system
    locale.  Use the environment if possible.  Try LC_ALL first, then LANG.
    "C" means English (en).  Otherwise, only the first two characters of the
    locale name are used.
    
    Unrecognized locales (those without a supporting xx.tmac file) are
    ignored, and groff falls back to English.
    
    Those who want groff's default locale to differ from LC_ALL/LANG should
    edit this troffrc to source the appropriate groff locale macro file
    (cs.tmac, de.tmac, den.tmac, fr.tmac, ja.tmac, sv.tmac, zh.tmac).

    tmac/en.tmac: Add English localization file.

    [troffrc]: Change hyphenation language us to en.
    
    The first-order determinant of hyphenation points is language, not
    territory.  Use ISO 639 2-letter language codes for hyphenation and
    exception patterns instead of ISO 3166 2-letter territory codes.

    tmac: Rename *.us to *.en.
    
    The first-order determinant of hyphenation points is language, not
    territory.  Use ISO 639 2-letter language codes for hyphenation and
    exception patterns instead of ISO 3166 2-letter territory codes.
