NAME
       Locale::Maketext::Lexicon::Msgcat - Msgcat catalog parser Maketext

SYNOPSIS
           package Hello::I18N;
           use base 'Locale::Maketext';
           use Locale::Maketext::Lexicon {
               en => ['Msgcat', 'en_US/hello.pl.m'],
           };

           package main;
           my $lh = Hello::I18N->get_handle('en');
           print $lh->maketext(1,2);   # set 1, msg 2
           print $lh->maketext("1,2"); # same thing

DESCRIPTION
       This module parses one or more Msgcat catalogs in plain text format, and returns a Lexicon hash,
       which may be looked up either with a two-argument form ("$set_id, $msg_id") or as a single string
       ("$set_id,$msg_id").

NOTES
       All special characters ("[", "]" and "~") in catalogs will be escaped so they lose their magic
       meanings.  That means "->maketext" calls to this lexicon will not take any additional arguments.
