The Korean Solaris operating environment must be specially set up for using Korean text facilities. This chapter describes the steps required to set up the Korean environment and to start Korean Solaris operation.
The Korean Solaris operating environment provides two window environments, the Common Desktop Environment (CDE) and OpenWindows. CDE is a fully internationalized environment; it does not require most of the administration tasks that OpenWindows requires to handle Korean. For information on starting up OpenWindows, see Appendix A, "OpenWindows Information." The Korean Solaris product includes three locales:
C - ASCII English environment
ko - Korean extended UNIX code (EUC). This locale supports the Unicode 3.0 standard.
ko.UTF-8 - Korean Universal Multiple Octet Coded Character Set (UCS) Transmission Format. This locale supports the Unicode 3.0 standard.
korean - Symbolic link to ko locale.
ko_KR.EUC - Symbolic link to ko locale.
ko_KR.UTF-8 - Symbolic link to ko.UTF-8 locale.
The ko_KR.EUC, ko.UTF-8 and ko_KR.UTF-8 locales support CDE but do not support the OpenWindows environment.
Make sure the Korean Solaris operating environment is installed as directed in the documents appropriate to your hardware platform:

The Korean CDE includes three directories for applications defaults. One is for system-wide defaults, and two are specific to locale features:
The /usr/dt/app-defaults/C directory stores system wide application defaults. These values are for the C locale.
The /usr/dt/app-defaults/ko directory stores application default values specific to the ko locale.
The /usr/dt/app-defaults/ko.UTF-8 directory stores application default values specific to the ko.UTF-8 locale.
For the ko locale:
The $OPENWINHOME/lib/locale/ko/app-defaults/Htt file has all htt resource default values.
The /usr/dt/app-defaults/ko/Sdthanja file has all sdthanja resource default values.
For the ko.UTF-8 locale:
The $OPENWINHOME/lib/locale/ko.UTF-8/app-defaults/Htt file has all htt resource default values.
The /usr/dt/app-defaults/ko.UTF-8/Sdthanja file has all sdthanja resource default values.
Hangul-Hanja conversion is maintained by Hanja Tool, which manages two system files:
In the ko locale, the /usr/lib/mle/ko/syshjd file is system-wide and read-only.
In the ko.UTF-8 locale, the /usr/lib/mle/ko.UTF-8/syshjd file is system-wide and read-only.
In the ko and ko.UTF-8 locales, the $HOME/.usrhjd file can be manipulated by the user.
