Catalan(5)
NAME
Catalan, catalan - Introduction to Catalan language support
DESCRIPTION
This reference page describes the codeset, locale, device, and other kinds
of support for the Catalan language.
Codesets
The operating system supports the following coded character sets (codeset)
for Catalan:
· ISO 8859-1 (ISO Latin-1)
ISO8859-1 is the string that represents this codeset in the names of
locales and other system files. See iso8859-1(5) for more information
about the ISO Latin-1 codeset.
· ISO 8859-15 (ISO Latin-9)
ISO8859-15 is the string that represents this codeset in the names of
locales and other system files. See iso8859-15(5) for more information
about the ISO Latin-9 codeset.
· UCS-2, UCS-4, and UTF-8
UCS-2, UCS-4, ucs4, and UTF-8 are the strings that represent these
codesets in the names of system files. See Unicode(5) for more
information about these encoding formats.
· PC code-page formats
cp437, cp850, and cp1250 are the strings that represent these encoding
formats in the names of system files. See code_page(5) for more
information about these encoding formats.
See i18n_intro(5) and l10n_intro(5) for introductory information on
codesets and iconv_intro(5) for information on codeset conversion.
Locales
The operating system supports the following Catalan locales:
· ca_ES.ISO8859-1, ca_ES.ISO8859-15, and ca_ES.UTF-8, for Spain
Of these locales, only ca_ES.ISO8859-15 and ca_ES.UTF-8 support the euro
currency sign.
You can use the locale command (see locale(1)) to find out which locales
are installed on your system. See i18n_intro(5) for information on setting
locale from the operating system command line.
In the Common Desktop Environment (CDE), you need to set locale by setting
the session language. To do this, use the Language menu that is accessed
from the Options button of the Login window.
Keyboards and Printers
Keyboard and printer support for Catalan is the same as for Spanish. Refer
to the Spanish(5) reference page for this information.
