Usage: getlocale [-asuh]
|
||||
Print Windows locale(s)
|
||||
|
||||
Options:
|
||||
|
||||
-a, --all List all available locales
|
||||
-s, --system Print system default locale
|
||||
(default is current user default locale)
|
||||
-u, --utf Attach ".UTF-8" to the result
|

-h, --help this text
|

</screen>
|
||||
|
||||
<para><command>getlocale</command> without parameters just prints the
|
||||
current user's Windows default locale to stdout. The <literal>-s</literal>
|
||||
option prints the systems default locale instead. With the
|
||||
<literal>-u</literal> option <command>getlocale</command> appends a ".UTF-8".
|
||||
This can be used in scripts to set the Cygwin locale, for instance:

||||

|
||||
|

|
||||
bash$ export LANG=$(getlocale -u)
|

bash$ echo $LANG
|

en_US.UTF-8
|
||||
</screen>
|
||||
|
||||
<para>The <literal>-a</literal> option is helpful to learn which locales
|
||||
are supported by your Windows machine. It prints the locales and their
|
||||
actual meaning, like this:</para>
