- Locale-Codes Distribution
- v2.06
-
- This distribution contains four Perl modules which can be used to process
- ISO codes for identifying languages, countries, scripts,
- and currencies & funds.
-
- Locale::Language
- Two letter codes for language identification (ISO 639).
- For example, 'en' is the code for 'English'.
-
- Locale::Country
- Codes for country identification (ISO 3166). This module
- supports the three different code sets defined by the
- standard: alpha-2, alpha-3, and numeric codes.
- For example, 'bo' is the code for 'Bolivia'.
-
- Locale::Currency
- Three letter codes for currency and fund identification (ISO 4217).
- For example, 'sek' is the code for 'Swedish Krona'.
-
- Locale::Script
- Codes for script identification (ISO 15924). This module supports
- the three different code sets defined by the standard:
- alpha-2, alpha-3, and numeric codes.
-
- To install these modules, you should just have to run the following:
-
- % perl Makefile.PL
- % make
- % make test
- % make install
-
- The modules are documented using pod. When you "make install", you
- will get four man-pages: Locale::Language, Locale::Country,
- Locale::Currency, Locale::Script.
-
- The first version of Locale::Currency was written by Michael Hennecke,
- with modifications for inclusion by me. Kudos to Michael.
-
- Please let me know if you experience any problems with these modules,
- or have any ideas for additions.
