NAME
+
       setlocale - set the current locale.
+
+
SYNOPSIS
+
       #include <locale.h>
+
+       char *setlocale(int category, const char * locale);
+
+
DESCRIPTION
+
       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.
+
+
CONFORMS TO
+
       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.
