NAME
geocustoms - configure system language on multi-language systems
SYNOPSIS
geocustoms[-l locale ]
DESCRIPTION
The
geocustoms command manages default selection of multiple languages installed on "ignited"
(Instant Ignition) systems. In subsequent sessions, invoking the command
/usr/sbin/geocustoms
starts geocustoms. When invoked with no options,
geocustoms runs interactively with a terminal
interface.
Options
-l locale Non-interactively set the
LANG parameter. To view all locales available on the system,
run
locale -a. If the locale argument is not a valid option for the system, an error
message is issued and the terminal user interface (also known as TUI or UI) appears,
as if the -l option were not used.
If the argument to the
-l option is
SET_NULL_LOCALE, locale parameters are set to
NULL by default.
A null locale causes programs to execute without using localized message catalogs, which can increase
system performance. All HP-UX messages appear in English if the locale is set to
NULL.
The
geocustoms command must be invoked by a user with appropriate privilege.
If
geocustoms is invoked directly by the user, it might be necessary to log out and login again for
language changes to take effect.
RETURN VALUE
0 Successful completion and/or clean exit from command.
1 Command unable to complete all objectives.
DIAGNOSTICS
Standard Output
The non-interactive
geocustoms
command does not write to stdout.
