Besides LANG
, there are other NLS environment variables
such as LC_CTYPE
and LC_ALL
. These variables are not affected by
the dtlogin language resource nor by the login screen Options
menu. They must be set in the following files:
System-wide variables: /etc/dt/config/Xsession.d
Personal variables: HomeDirectory/.dtprofile
The NLSPATH
environment
variable determines the directory paths that applications search for message
catalogs. Both LANG
and NLSPATH
must be set to use those message catalogs.
Refer to Localizing Message Catalogs for the location of localized messages.
Most desktop clients will prefix the path to NLSPATH
upon startup.
