>>> loc=locale.getlocale(locale.LC_CTYPE)
>>> loc
('tr_TR', 'ISO8859-9')
getlocale() has issues on Unix, but worse issues on Windows. See:
* bpo-12726
* bpo-20087
* bpo-20088
* bpo-23425
* bpo-33934
* bpo-38805
I never use getlocale() and I never understood the purpose of this function. I
use locale.setlocale(loc) (same than locale.setlocale(loc, None)) to *get* a
locale: the result can be passed to locale.setlocale(loc, result) with no
problem.
