.TH "locale-gen" "8" "Aug 2007" "Gentoo"
.SH "NAME"
locale\-gen \- generate locales on the fly
.SH "DESCRIPTION"
The locale\-gen utility is used to manage locales on your system. Often times
it merely generates a user configurable list of locales, but it can be used to
generate a few locales on the fly as needed.
Normally all locales would be generated at build time, but this leads to waste
of disk and time as many users really just want a handful on their system.
.SH "OPTIONS"
.TP
\fB\-a\fR, \fB\-\-ask\fR
Ask before generating each locale
.TP
\fB\-A\fR, \fB\-\-all\fR
Generate all possible locales
.TP
\fB\-c\fR, \fB\-\-config\fR \fI<config>\fR
Use specified \fIconfig\fR file rather than default /etc/locale.gen
.TP
\fB\-d\fR, \fB\-\-destdir\fR \fI<dir>\fR
Look for locale definitions and store generated locale data in the specified
\fIdirectory\fR
.TP
\fB\-G\fR, \fB\-\-generate\fR \fI<locale>\fR
Only generate the specified \fIlocale\fR (implies \-\-keep \-\-update);
format of \fIlocale\fR matches a single line in the \fBlocale.gen\fR(5)
config file
.TP
\fB\-h\fR, \fB\-\-help\fR
Show the help output (imagine that)
.TP
\fB\-j\fR, \fB\-\-jobs\fR \fI<num>\fR
Generate the specified \fInumber\fR of locales in parallel

.TP
\fB\-V\fR, \fB\-\-version\fR
Report the program version
.TP
\fB\-\-\fR
To pass custom options directly to the \fBlocaledef\fR utility, end the
\fBlocale\-gen\fR option list with \-\- and then everything after that will be
passed on through unmolested (the options \-c are passed by default)
