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 set (code-
set) 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 the iso8859-1(5) reference page for information on the ISO Latin 1
codeset. See the i18n_intro(5) and l10n_intro(5) reference pages for
introductory information on codesets.
Locales
The operating system supports the following Catalan locale:
ca_ES.ISO8859-1, for Spain
You can use the locale command (see locale(1)) to find out if this lo-
cale is installed on your system. See i18n_intro(5) for information on
setting locale.
In a windows environment, you also need to set the session language.
The way you do this depends on which windows environment you are using:
In the Common Desktop environment (CDE), use the Language menu accessed
from the login window Options button. In the DECwindows environment,
use the Language Option dialog box invoked from the Session Manager's
Options menu.
Keyboards
Keyboard support for Catalan is the same as for Spanish. Refer to the
Spanish(5) reference page for keyboard information.
Printers
PostScript fonts for languages supported by the ISO 8859-1 codeset must
be printer resident. The operating system does not provide fonts that
you can manually or dynamically download.
Codeset Conversion
The following codeset converters are available for Catalan:
cp437_ISO8859-1 (PC code-page format to ISO Latin-1) cp437_UCS-2 (PC
code-page format to UCS-2) cp437_UCS-4 (PC code-page format to UCS-4)
cp437_UTF-8 (PC code-page format to UTF-8) cp850_ISO8859-1 (PC code-
page format to ISO Latin-1) cp850_UCS-2 (PC code-page format to UCS-2)
cp850_UCS-4 (PC code-page format to UCS-4) cp850_UTF-8 (PC code-page
format to UTF-8) ISO8859-1_cp437 (ISO Latin-1 to PC code-page format)
ISO8859-1_cp850 (ISO Latin-1 to PC code-page format) ISO8859-1_UCS-2
(ISO Latin-1 to UCS-2) ISO8859-1_UCS-4 (ISO Latin-1 to UCS-4)
ISO8859-1_UTF-8 (ISO Latin-1 to UTF-8) UCS-2_cp437 (UCS-2 to PC code-
page format) UCS-2_cp850 (UCS-2 to PC code-page format) UCS-2_ISO8859-1
(UCS-2 to ISO Latin-1) UCS-4_cp437 (UCS-4 to PC code-page format)
UCS-4_cp850 (UCS-4 to PC code-page format) UCS-4_ISO8859-1 (UCS-4 to
ISO Latin-1) UTF-8_cp437 (UTF-8 to PC code-page format) UTF-8_cp850
(UTF-8 to PC code-page format) UTF-8_ISO8859-1 (UTF-8 to ISO Latin-1)
