See .BR locale (7) for additional details for these categories. .SS Syntax The locale definition file starts with a header that may consist of the following keywords: .TP .I 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 (\e). .TP .I 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 (#). .PP The locale definition has one part for each locale category. Each part can be copied from another existing locale or can be defined from scratch. If the category should be copied, the only valid keyword in the definition is .I copy followed by the name of the locale in double quotes which should be copied. The exceptions for this rule are .B LC_COLLATE and .B LC_CTYPE where a .I copy statement can be followed by locale-specific rules and selected overrides. .PP When defining a locale or a category from scratch, an existing system- provided locale definition file should be used as a reference to follow common glibc conventions. .SS Locale category sections The following category sections are defined by POSIX: .IP \[bu] 3 .B LC_CTYPE .IP \[bu] .B LC_COLLATE .IP \[bu] .B LC_MESSAGES .IP \[bu] .B LC_MONETARY .IP \[bu] .B LC_NUMERIC .IP \[bu] .B LC_TIME .PP In addition, since glibc 2.2, the GNU C library supports the following nonstandard categories: .IP \[bu] 3 .B LC_ADDRESS .IP \[bu] .B LC_IDENTIFICATION .IP \[bu] .B LC_MEASUREMENT .IP \[bu] .B LC_NAME .IP \[bu] .B LC_PAPER .IP \[bu] .B LC_TELEPHONE .PP See .BR locale (7) for a more detailed description of each category. .SS LC_ADDRESS The definition starts with the string .I LC_ADDRESS in the first column. .PP The following keywords are allowed: .TP .I postal_fmt followed by a string containing field descriptors that define the format used for postal addresses in the locale.
