LEARN ABOUT NETBSD
locale
LOCALE(1) BSD General Commands Manual LOCALE(1)
NAME
locale -- get locale-specific information
SYNOPSIS
locale [-a | -m]
locale [-ck] [keyword ...]
DESCRIPTION
The locale utility is supposed to provide most locale specific information to the standard output.
When locale is invoked without arguments it will print out a summary of the current locale environment depending on environment variable set-
tings and internal status.
When locale is invoked with arguments and no options specified it will print out keyword's value determined using current locale settings.
The following options are available:
-a Write names of all available locales. While looking for locales locale will respect the PATH_LOCALE environment variable, and use it
instead of the system default locale directory.
-c Write the category name for the selected keywords.
-k Write the name and value of the selected keywords.
-m Write names of all available charmaps.
IMPLEMENTATION DETAILS
Special (FreeBSD- / NetBSD-specific) keyword list can be used to retrieve a human readable list of available keywords.
DIAGNOSTICS
The locale utility exits 0 on success, and >0 if an error occurs.
STANDARDS
locale conforms to IEEE Std 1003.1-2001 (``POSIX.1'').
HISTORY
locale first appeared in NetBSD 2.0.
AUTHORS
This implementation of locale was originally written by Alexey Zelkin <phantom@FreeBSD.org> for FreeBSD.
BUGS
Since NetBSD does not support charmaps in their POSIX meaning locale emulates the -m option via CODESETs listing of all available locales.
