Header Keywords - HP 9000 User Manual

• Categories can be listed in any order in a
localedef
script .
• All category specifications are optional. If a category is not specified, "C"
locale is set up as the default for that category.
localedef Syntax
Table 5-1 outlined the basic structure of a
localedef
script. In addition to the
category, the syntax of your
localedef
script provides for the specification of
subcategories within each category. Introduce these subcategories through a
pre-defined keyword followed by one or more expressions that specify applicable
characteristics of the language. (These subcategories are described in later
sections).
localedef
also recognizes three keywords that do not belong to any
category. These keywords form a header for the language definition script,
uniquely identifying the language:
