+<h3>SETLOCALE(3) Linux Programmer's Manual SETLOCALE(3)
+</h3>
+
+<h3>NAME
+</h3> setlocale - set the current locale.
+
+<h3>SYNOPSIS
+</h3> #include &lt;locale.h&gt;
+
+ char *setlocale(int category, const char * locale);
+
+<h3>DESCRIPTION
+</h3> The setlocale() function is used to set or query the pro-
+ gram's current locale. If locale is "C" or "POSIX", the
+ current locale is set to the portable locale.
+
+ If locale is "", the locale is set to the default locale
+ which is selected from the environment variable LANG.
+
+ On startup of the main program, the portable "C" locale is
+ selected as default.
+
+ The argument category determines which functions are
+ influenced by the new locale:
+
+ LC_ALL for all of the locale.
+
+ LC_COLLATE
+ for the functions strcoll() and strxfrm().
+
+ LC_CTYPE
+ for the character classification and conversion
+ routines.
+
+ LC_MONETARY
+ for localeconv().
+
+ LC_NUMERIC
+ for the decimal character.
+
+ LC_TIME
+ for strftime(). NULL if the request cannot not be
+ honored. This string may be allocated in static
+ storage.
+
+ A program may be made portable to all locales by calling
+ setlocale(LC_ALL, "" ) after program initialization, by
+ using the values returned from a localeconv() call for
+ locale - dependent information and by using strcoll() or
+ strxfrm() to compare strings.
+
+<h3>CONFORMS TO
+</h3> ANSI C, POSIX.1
+
+ Linux supports the portable locales "C" and "POSIX" and
+ also the European Latin-1 "ISO-8859-1" , and Russian
+ "KOI-8" locales.
