-.TH repertoiremap 5 (date) "Linux man-pages (unreleased)"
-.SH NAME
-repertoiremap \- map symbolic character names to Unicode code points
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-A repertoire map defines mappings between symbolic character names
-(mnemonics) and Unicode code points when compiling a locale with
-.BR localedef (1).
-Using a repertoire map is optional, it is needed only when symbolic
-names are used instead of now preferred Unicode code points.
-.SS Syntax
-The repertoiremap file starts with a header that may consist of the
-following keywords:
-.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 (#).
-.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).
-.PP
-The mapping section starts with the keyword
-.I CHARIDS
-in the first column.
-.PP
-The mapping lines have the following form:
-.TP
-.I <symbolic-name> <code-point> comment
-This defines exactly one mapping,
-.I comment
-being optional.
-.PP
-The mapping section ends with the string
-.IR "END CHARIDS" .
-.SH FILES
-.TP
-.I /usr/share/i18n/repertoiremaps
-Usual default repertoire map path.
-.SH STANDARDS
-POSIX.2.
-.SH NOTES
-Repertoire maps are deprecated in favor of Unicode code points.
-.SH EXAMPLES
-A mnemonic for the Euro sign can be defined as follows:
-.PP
-.nf
-<Eu> <U20AC> EURO SIGN
-.fi
