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.

    ·  UTF-16, UCS-4, and UTF-8

       UTF-16, UCS-4, 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

  The ca_ES.ISO8859-15 and ca_ES.UTF-8 locales use the euro symbol for
  currency. Because the ca_ES.ISO8859-1 locale repertoire does not contain
  the euro symbol, it continues to use the peseta currency symbol.

  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 a locale by
  setting the session language. To do this, from the Options menu of the
  Login window, choose Language. Then, from the Language options menu, choose
  a session language.

  Keyboards and Printers

  Keyboard and printer support for Catalan is the same as for Spanish.	See
  Spanish(5) for information on keyboards and printers.
