NAME
Hungarian, hungarian - Introduction to Hungarian language support
DESCRIPTION
This reference page describes the codeset, locale, device, and other
kinds of support for the Hungarian language.
Codesets
The operating system supports the following coded character sets (code-
sets) for Hungarian by means of locales, codeset converters, or both:
ISO 8859-2 (ISO Latin-2)
ISO8859-2 is the string that represents this codeset in the
names of locales and codeset converters. See iso8859-2(5) for
more information. UCS-2, UCS-4, and UTF-8
UCS-2, UCS-4, ucs4, and UTF-8 are the strings that represent
these encoding formats in the names of locales and codeset con-
verters. See Unicode(5) for more information. PC code pages
cp852 and cp1250 are the strings that represent these encoding
formats in the names of codeset converters. See code_page(5)
for more information.
See the i18n_intro(5) and l10n_intro(5) reference pages for introduc-
tory information on codesets. The iconv_intro(5) reference page dis-
cusses codeset converters and how to use them.
Locales
The operating system provides the following Hungarian locale:
hu_HU.ISO8859-2, for Hungary
This locale also exists under the name hu_HU.ISO8859-2@ucs4 for
use by applications that need to convert file data in ISO8859-2
format to UCS-4 process code to perform certain kinds of char-
acter operations.
You can use the locale command (see locale(1)) to find out which lo-
cales are 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
The operating system supports the following VT style and PC style key-
boards with Hungarian characters printed on the keys:
l l. _ VT Style (105/108 keys) PC Style (102 keys) _
LK401-BQ LK471-BQ LK411-BQ LK47W-BQ LK461-BQ LK97W-BQ LK46W-
BQ PCXAL-HQ PCXAL-LQ PCXAL-PQ PCXAL-SQ _
For your keyboard to function correctly with your system, you must load
a keyboard mapping table (keymap) that is appropriate for your key-
board's model and language. If you load a keymap that does not corre-
spond to your keyboard's model and language, your keyboard behavior is
unpredictable. The label located on the bottom surface of a keyboard
usually specifies its model (five letter code) and language (two letter
code). See the keyboard(5) reference page for general information on
keymaps and instructions for loading them in different formats. The
following tables supply Hungarian-specific information that you need
when loading keymaps.
Selecting keymaps in xkb format:

BQ hungarian lk411bq PCXAL-LQ hungarian pcxalhq PCXAL-
PQ hungarian pcxalhq PCXAL-SQ hungarian pcxalhq _
Keyboards can have keys with characters printed on both the left and
right half of the keycap. The way you set or use your keyboard to send
different sets of characters varies from one keyboard model to another.
Furthermore, your keyboard allows you to enter more characters than
those printed on the keycaps. Refer to the keyboard(5) reference page
for information on how to enter characters.
Printers
The i18n_printing(5) reference page discusses printer-support options.
The PostScript fonts available for languages supported by the ISO
8859-2 codeset are listed on the iso8859-2(5) reference page.
