REPERTOIREMAP(5)               Linux User Manual              REPERTOIREMAP(5)

NAME
       repertoiremap - map symbolic character names to Unicode code points

DESCRIPTION
       A  repertoire map defines mappings between symbolic character names and
       Unicode code points when compiling a locale with localedef(1).  Using a
       repertoire  map  is optional, it is only needed when symbolic names are
       used instead of now preferred Unicode code points.

   Syntax
       The repertoiremap file starts with a header that  may  consist  of  the
       following keywords:

       <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 (#).

       <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 (\).

       The mapping section starts with the keyword CHARIDS in the  first  col-
       umn.

       The mapping lines have the following form:

       <symbolic-name> <code-point> <comment>
              This defines exactly one mapping, <comment> being optional.

       The mapping section ends with the string END CHARIDS.

FILES
       /usr/share/i18n/repertoiremaps
              Usual default repertoire map path.

CONFORMING TO
       POSIX.2.

NOTES
       Repertoire maps are deprecated in favor of Unicode code points.
