The data files for the office and Mass are contained in the web/www/horas/
and web/www/missa/ directories. Within these directories there is a directory
for each language. The files are UTF-8-encoded text files (Windows-1252
encoding is also supported, but is deprecated). The files are arranged into
sections, with each section beginning with its name enclosed in square
