NAME 🖥️ repertoiremap 🖥️

map symbolic character names to Unicode code points

DESCRIPTION

A repertoire map defines mappings between symbolic character names (mnemonics) and Unicode code points when compiling a locale with localedef(1). Using a repertoire map is optional, it is needed only when symbolic names are used instead of now preferred Unicode code points.

Syntax

The repertoiremap file starts with a header that may consist of the following keywords:

comment_char
is followed by a character that will be used as the comment character for the rest of the file. It defaults to the number sign (#).

escape_char
is followed by a character that should be used as the escape character for the rest of the file to mark characters that should be interpreted in a special way. It defaults to the backslash (.

The mapping section starts with the keyword CHARIDS in the first column.

The mapping lines have the following form:

<symbolic-name> <code-point> comment
This defines exactly one mapping, comment being optional.

The mapping section ends with the string END CHARIDS.

FILES

/usr/share/i18n/repertoiremaps
Usual default repertoire map path.

STANDARDS

POSIX.2.

NOTES

Repertoire maps are deprecated in favor of Unicode code points.

EXAMPLES

A mnemonic for the Euro sign can be defined as follows:

<Eu> <U20AC> EURO SIGN
