SYNOPSIS
/usr/sbin/odld user-id group-id odl-db
OPERANDS

DESCRIPTION
The odld daemon supports the Software On-Demand Loading (SoftODL) service. This service handles font files for user-defined characters. It
is available only when optional Tru64 UNIX subsets with software for Chinese, Japanese, or Korean are installed on the system. The odld
daemon processes the font loading requests issued by the Asian terminal driver (atty) through the utx pseudo device driver.
The odl parameter of the stty command spawns the odld daemon (see stty(1)). The stty command includes additional parameters that affect
SoftODL operation.
FILES
The utx device special files
