At the C-shell level, each environment variable can be set to locale (ko or ko.UTF-8 for Korean or C for ASCII) by a shell command as follows:
C-shell users can enter a shell command as follows:
system% setenv LC_TIME locale |
Bourne shell (sh) users can use set or export:
$ set -a LC_TIME $ LC_TIME=locale |
or
$ LC_TIME=locale $ export LC_TIME |
Setting the locale to ko or ko.UTF-8 allows the user's environment to display time in Korean format and text. A user can define a mix of locales for the working environment. For example, characters can be typed and converted in Korean, time can be displayed in French format and messages can appear in English.
Many users work in a single cultural environment. The LC_ALL and LANG environment variables set the system default for all categories. For example, these C-shell commands set the system default for all categories to locale.
system% setenv LC_ALL locale system% setenv LANG locale |
System administrators or users can set the default, and the setenv syntax can be used in programming.
This setting is put into effect the next time a setlocale() function call in an application program line sets a category to the default setting: setlocale(LC_XXX, "")
