+.SH DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+The \fIlocaledef\fP utility shall convert source definitions for locale
+categories into a format usable by the functions and
+utilities whose operational behavior is determined by the setting
+of the locale environment variables defined in the Base
+Definitions volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Chapter 7, Locale. It
+is
+implementation-defined whether users have the capability to create
+new locales, in addition to those supplied by the
+implementation. If the symbolic constant POSIX2_LOCALEDEF is defined,
+the system supports the creation of new locales.   \ On
+XSI-conformant systems, the symbolic constant POSIX2_LOCALEDEF shall
+be defined. 
+.LP
+The utility shall read source definitions for one or more locale categories
+belonging to the same locale from the file named in
+the \fB-i\fP option (if specified) or from standard input.
+.LP
+The \fIname\fP operand identifies the target locale. The utility shall
+support the creation of \fIpublic\fP, or generally
+accessible locales, as well as \fIprivate\fP, or restricted-access
+locales. Implementations may restrict the capability to create
+or modify public locales to users with the appropriate privileges.
+.LP
+Each category source definition shall be identified by the corresponding
+environment variable name and terminated by an
+\fBEND\fP \fIcategory-name\fP statement. The following categories
+shall be supported. In addition, the input may contain source
+for implementation-defined categories.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_CTYPE\fP
+Defines character classification and case conversion.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_COLLATE\fP
+.sp
+Defines collation rules.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_MONETARY\fP
+.sp
+Defines the format and symbols used in formatting of monetary information.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_NUMERIC\fP
+.sp
+Defines the decimal delimiter, grouping, and grouping symbol for non-monetary
+numeric editing.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_TIME\fP
+Defines the format and content of date and time information.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_MESSAGES\fP
+.sp
+Defines the format and values of affirmative and negative responses.
+.sp
+.SH OPTIONS
+.LP
+The \fIlocaledef\fP utility shall conform to the Base Definitions
+volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 12.2, Utility Syntax Guidelines.
+.LP
+The following options shall be supported:
+.TP 7
+\fB-c\fP
+Create permanent output even if warning messages have been issued.
+.TP 7
+\fB-f\ \fP \fIcharmap\fP
+Specify the pathname of a file containing a mapping of character symbols
+and collating element symbols to actual character
+encodings. The format of the \fIcharmap\fP is described in the Base
+Definitions volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 6.4, Character
+Set Description File. The application shall ensure that this
+option is specified if symbolic names (other than collating symbols
+defined in a \fBcollating-symbol\fP keyword) are used. If the
+\fB-f\fP option is not present, an implementation-defined character
+mapping shall be used.
+.TP 7
+\fB-i\ \fP \fIinputfile\fP
+The pathname of a file containing the source definitions. If this
+option is not present, source definitions shall be read from
+standard input. The format of the \fIinputfile\fP is described in
+the Base Definitions volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001,
+Section 7.3, Locale Definition.
+.TP 7
+\fB-u\ \fP \fIcode_set_name\fP
+.sp
+Specify the name of a codeset used as the target mapping of character
+symbols and collating element symbols whose encoding values
+are defined in terms of the ISO/IEC\ 10646-1:2000 standard position
+constant values.
+.sp
+.SH OPERANDS
+.LP
+The following operand shall be supported:
+.TP 7
+\fIname\fP
+Identifies the locale; see the Base Definitions volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001,
+Chapter 7, Locale for a description of the use of this name. If the
+name contains one or more
+slash characters, \fIname\fP shall be interpreted as a pathname where
+the created locale definitions shall be stored. If
+\fIname\fP does not contain any slash characters, the interpretation
+of the name is implementation-defined and the locale shall be
+public. This capability may be restricted to users with appropriate
+privileges. (As a consequence of specifying one \fIname\fP,
+although several categories can be processed in one execution, only
+categories belonging to the same locale can be processed.)
+.sp
+.SH STDIN
+.LP
+Unless the \fB-i\fP option is specified, the standard input shall
+be a text file containing one or more locale category source
+definitions, as described in the Base Definitions volume of IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001,
+Section 7.3, Locale Definition. When lines are continued using the
+escape character
+mechanism, there is no limit to the length of the accumulated continued
+line.
+.SH INPUT FILES
+.LP
+The character set mapping file specified as the \fIcharmap\fP option-argument
+is described in the Base Definitions volume of
+IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 6.4, Character Set Description File.
+If
+a locale category source definition contains a \fBcopy\fP statement,
+as defined in the Base Definitions volume of
+IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Chapter 7, Locale, and the \fBcopy\fP statement
+names a
+valid, existing locale, then \fIlocaledef\fP shall behave as if the
+source definition had contained a valid category source
+definition for the named locale.
+.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
+.LP
+The following environment variables shall affect the execution of
+\fIlocaledef\fP:
+.TP 7
+\fILANG\fP
+Provide a default value for the internationalization variables that
+are unset or null. (See the Base Definitions volume of
+IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 8.2, Internationalization Variables
+for
+the precedence of internationalization variables used to determine
+the values of locale categories.)
+.TP 7
+\fILC_ALL\fP
+If set to a non-empty string value, override the values of all the
+other internationalization variables.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_COLLATE\fP
+.sp
+(This variable has no affect on \fIlocaledef\fP; the POSIX locale
+is used for this category.)
+.TP 7
+\fILC_CTYPE\fP
+Determine the locale for the interpretation of sequences of bytes
+of text data as characters (for example, single-byte as
+opposed to multi-byte characters in arguments and input files). This
+variable has no affect on the processing of \fIlocaledef\fP
+input data; the POSIX locale is used for this purpose, regardless
+of the value of this variable.
+.TP 7
+\fILC_MESSAGES\fP
+Determine the locale that should be used to affect the format and
+contents of diagnostic messages written to standard
+error.
+.TP 7
+\fINLSPATH\fP
+Determine the location of message catalogs for the processing of \fILC_MESSAGES
+\&.\fP 
+.sp
+.SH ASYNCHRONOUS EVENTS
+.LP
+Default.
+.SH STDOUT
+.LP
+The utility shall report all categories successfully processed, in
+an unspecified format.
+.SH STDERR
+.LP
+The standard error shall be used only for diagnostic messages.
+.SH OUTPUT FILES
+.LP
+The format of the created output is unspecified. If the \fIname\fP
+operand does not contain a slash, the existence of an output
+file for the locale is unspecified.
+.SH EXTENDED DESCRIPTION
+.LP
+When the \fB-u\fP option is used, the \fIcode_set_name\fP option-argument
+shall be interpreted as an implementation-defined
+name of a codeset to which the ISO/IEC\ 10646-1:2000 standard position
+constant values shall be converted via an
+implementation-defined method. Both the ISO/IEC\ 10646-1:2000 standard
+position constant values and other formats (decimal,
+hexadecimal, or octal) shall be valid as encoding values within the
+\fIcharmap\fP file. The codeset represented by the
+implementation-defined name can be any codeset that is supported by
+the implementation.
+.LP
+When conflicts occur between the \fIcharmap\fP specification of <\fIcode_set_name\fP>,
+<\fImb_cur_max\fP>, or
+<\fImb_cur_min\fP> and the implementation-defined interpretation of
+these respective items for the codeset represented by
+the \fB-u\fP option-argument \fIcode_set_name\fP, the result is unspecified.
+.LP
+When conflicts occur between the \fIcharmap\fP encoding values specified
+for symbolic names of characters of the portable
+character set and the implementation-defined assignment of character
+encoding values, the result is unspecified.
+.LP
+If a non-printable character in the \fIcharmap\fP has a width specified
+that is not \fB-1\fP, \fIlocaledef\fP shall generate
+a warning.
+.SH EXIT STATUS
+.LP
+The following exit values shall be returned:
+.TP 7
+\ 0
+No errors occurred and the locales were successfully created.
+.TP 7
+\ 1
+Warnings occurred and the locales were successfully created.
+.TP 7
+\ 2
+The locale specification exceeded implementation limits or the coded
+character set or sets used were not supported by the
+implementation, and no locale was created.
+.TP 7
+\ 3
+The capability to create new locales is not supported by the implementation.
+.TP 7
+>3
+Warnings or errors occurred and no output was created.
+.sp
+.SH CONSEQUENCES OF ERRORS
+.LP
+If an error is detected, no permanent output shall be created.
+.LP
+If warnings occur, permanent output shall be created if the \fB-c\fP
+option was specified. The following conditions shall cause
+warning messages to be issued:
+.IP " *" 3
+If a symbolic name not found in the \fIcharmap\fP file is used for
+the descriptions of the \fILC_CTYPE\fP or \fILC_COLLATE\fP
+categories (for other categories, this shall be an error condition).
+.LP
+.IP " *" 3
+If the number of operands to the \fBorder\fP keyword exceeds the {COLL_WEIGHTS_MAX}
+limit.
+.LP
+.IP " *" 3
+If optional keywords not supported by the implementation are present
+in the source.
+.LP
+.IP " *" 3
+If a non-printable character has a width specified other than -1.
+.LP
+.LP
+Other implementation-defined conditions may also cause warnings.
+.LP
+\fIThe following sections are informative.\fP
+.SH APPLICATION USAGE
+.LP
+The \fIcharmap\fP definition is optional, and is contained outside
+the locale definition. This allows both completely
+self-defined source files, and generic sources (applicable to more
+than one codeset). To aid portability, all \fIcharmap\fP
+definitions must use the same symbolic names for the portable character
+set. As explained in the Base Definitions volume of
+IEEE\ Std\ 1003.1-2001, Section 6.4, Character Set Description File,
+it
+is implementation-defined whether or not users or applications can
+provide additional character set description files. Therefore,
+the \fB-f\fP option might be operable only when an implementation-defined
+\fIcharmap\fP is named.
+.SH EXAMPLES
+.LP
+None.
+.SH RATIONALE
+.LP
+The output produced by the \fIlocaledef\fP utility is implementation-defined.
+The \fIname\fP operand is used to identify the
+specific locale. (As a consequence, although several categories can
+be processed in one execution, only categories belonging to the
+same locale can be processed.)
+.SH FUTURE DIRECTIONS
+.LP
+None.
