-The mdatabase_load () function receives a set of tags and returns the
-contents of database in the form of plist. The keys of the returned
-plist are limited to <tt>Minteger</tt>, <tt>Msymbol</tt>,
-<tt>Mtext</tt>, and <tt>Mplist</tt>. The type of the value is
-unambiguously determined by the corresponding key. If the key is
-<tt>Minteger</tt>, the value is an integer. If the key is
-<tt>Msymbol</tt>, the value is a symbol. And so on.
-
-A number of expressions are possible to represent a
-plist. For instance, we can use the form <tt>(K1:V1, K2:V2,
-... ,Kn:Vn)</tt> to represent a plist whose first property key and
-value are K1 and V1, second key and value are K2 and V2, and so on.
-However, we can use a simpler expression here because the types of
-plists used in the m17n database are fairly restricted.
-
-Hereafter, we use an expression, which is similar to
-S-expression, to represent a plist. (Actually, the default database
-loader of the m17n library is designed to read data files written in
-this expression.)
-
-The expression consists of one or more <i>elements</i>. Each
-element represents a property, i.e. a single element of a plist.
