10 .SH DESCRIPTION
11 .B set\-language\-env
12 establishes basic native language environment by adding lines
13 to your dot\-files. Since the setting is established
14 by adding lines to your dot\-files, the private environment
15 for only a person who invokes
16 .B set\-language\-env
17 is affected. It does not change any system\-wide settings.
18 (Note: The root user can change /etc/skel directory.)
19 .PP
20 This version supports Belarusian, Bulgarian, Catalan Danish, French,
21 German, Japanese, Korean, Macedonian, Polish, Russian, Serbian, Spanish,
22 Thai and Ukrainian.
23 .PP
24 .B set\-language\-env
25 shows a list of Debian packages which should be installed.
26 These packages are required to utilize settings.
27 You have to install them or ask the site administrator
28 to install them.
29 .PP
30 Added lines are surrounded with the header and footer lines.
31 Since these lines are used by
32 .B set\-language\-env
33 to recognize the lines
34 it has added, please do not modify them. You can modify lines before
35 the header line and after the footer line and the modification
36 will be preserved after invocations of
37 .BR set\-language\-env .
38 .PP
39 When
40 .B language\-env
41 package is updated, you can safely update your dot\-files by only invoking
42 .B set\-language\-env
43 without your original setting being affected.
44 The place where the lines were added is not changed by the process.
45 However, if you directly modified a setting which
46 .B set\-language\-env
47 have added, it will be lost on the next invocation of
48 .BR set\-language\-env .

117 Don't fork another

119 This option is for internal use.
120 .TP
121 .B \-c
122 On runtime of
123 .BR set\-language\-env ,
124 native language\-specific (i.e. non\-ASCII) characters (such as Kanji
125 and ISO\-8859\-1) are not used. Though this option is intended to be used
126 internally, this can be used to override automatic detection of whether
127 native language\-specific characters can be used or not when the detection
128 does not work well.
129 .TP
130 .B \-C
131 On runtime of
132 .BR set\-language\-env ,
133 native language\-specific (i.e. non\-ASCII) characters (such as Kanji
134 and ISO\-8859\-1) are used. Though this option is intended to be used
135 internally, this can be used to override automatic detection of whether
136 native language\-specific characters can be used or not when the detection
137 does not work well.
138 .TP
139 .B \-R
140 Root user usually cannot set his/her own settings into /root directory
141 because
142 .B set\-language\-env
143 checks it. This option disables the check.
144 .TP
145 .B \-E
146 Settings are done into
147 .I /etc/skel
148 directory instead of users' home directory.
149 Only root user can use this option.
