localedef

NAME

localedef - define locale-environment

SYNOPSIS

localedef [-c] [-f charmap] [-i sourcefile] name

DESCRIPTION

The localedef(1) utility does not currently support the definition of user locales. It parses its command-line arguments.

The options are as follows:

-c

Create permanent output despite warning messages.

-f charmap

Specify the path name of the character mapping file (charmap).

-i sourcefile

Specify the path name of the source file for the locale definition. Otherwise, standard-input is read.

DIAGNOSTICS

The Interix localedef(1) utility always exits with status 3 because user-defined locales are not supported. Possible status values for the utility are:

0

Success and the locale was successfully created.

1

Warnings (such as problems parsing the command line) but the locale was successfully created.

2

Errors the specification exceeded implementation limits or the character set or sets used were not supported by the implementation, and no locale was created.

3

User-defined locales are not supported by this implementation.

>3

Error or warning and no locale was created.
