Complex Text Layout Language Support in the Solaris Operating Environment

2.2 Multiscript Support

Because of the CTL framework, Unicode characters and CTL features can easily be presented together in a Unicode locale.

The UTF-8 locales use the Universal Multiscript Language Engine (UMLE). UMLE is controlled by the utility genlayouttbl(1) which can be used to add/customize the script layout. For more information about this utility and the Universal Multiscript Language Engine, see the genlayouttbl(1) man pages. Figure 2-2 shows a sample multiscript e-mail in dtmail (en_US.UTF-8 locale).
