definition file -.SH DESCRIPTION -The -.B locale -definition file contains all the information that the -.BR localedef (1) -command needs to convert it into the binary locale database. -.P -The definition files consist of sections which each describe a -locale category in detail. -See -.BR locale (7) -for additional details for these categories. -.SS Syntax -The locale definition file starts with a header that may consist -of the following keywords: -.TP -.I 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 (\e). -.TP -.I 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 (#). -.P -The locale definition has one part for each locale category. -Each part can be copied from another existing locale or -can be defined from scratch. -If the category should be copied, -the only valid keyword in the definition is -.I copy -followed by the name of the locale in double quotes which should be -copied. -The exceptions for this rule are -.B LC_COLLATE -and -.B LC_CTYPE -where a -.I copy -statement can be followed by locale-specific rules and selected overrides. -.P -When defining a locale or a category from scratch, an existing system- -provided locale definition file should be used as a reference to follow -common glibc conventions. -.SS Locale category sections -The following category sections are defined by POSIX: -.IP \[bu] 3 -.B LC_CTYPE -.IP \[bu] -.B LC_COLLATE -.IP \[bu] -.B LC_MESSAGES -.IP \[bu] -.B LC_MONETARY -.IP \[bu] -.B LC_NUMERIC -.IP \[bu] -.B LC_TIME -.P -In addition, since glibc 2.2, -the GNU C library
