hi,

I am working on additional documentation for locale part of the libc
and have some questions. FreeBSD locale is based on rune-type files. 
By mklocle(1) descriptions all characters are dividing into few categories:
. ALPHA - letters
. CONTROL -  control symbos
. DIGIT - digits
et cetera.

But I don't see anywhere descirptions on PHONOGRAM and IDEOGRAM. Manpages
shown that these categories were used by Japan locale only (again without any
descriptions :-( )

Anybody can give me answer about that these categories means ? Or url/reference
at least.
