This distribution contains four Perl modules which can be used to process |
| 8 |
|
|
ISO codes for identifying languages, countries, scripts, |
| 9 |
|
|
and currencies & funds. |
| 10 |
|
|
|
| 11 |
|
|
Locale::Language |
| 12 |
|
|
Two letter codes for language identification (ISO 639). |
| 13 |
|
|
For example, 'en' is the code for 'English'. |
| 14 |
|
|
|
| 15 |
|
|
Locale::Country |
| 16 |
|
|
Codes for country identification (ISO 3166). This module |
| 17 |
|
|
supports the three different code sets defined by the |
| 18 |
|
|
standard: alpha-2, alpha-3, and numeric codes. |
| 19 |
|
|
For example, 'bo' is the code for 'Bolivia'. |
| 20 |
|
|
|
| 21 |
|
|
Locale::Currency |
| 22 |
|
|
Three letter codes for currency and fund identification (ISO 4217). |
| 23 |
|
|
For example, 'sek' is the code for 'Swedish Krona'. |
| 24 |
|
|
|
| 25 |
|
|
Locale::Script |
| 26 |
|
|
Codes for script identification (ISO 15924). This module supports |
| 27 |
|
|
the three different code sets defined by the standard: |
| 28 |
|
|
alpha-2, alpha-3, and numeric codes. |
| 29 |
|

|
|
To install these modules, you should just have to run the following: |
| 31 |
|
|
|
| 32 |
|
|
% perl Makefile.PL |
| 33 |
|
|
% make |
| 34 |
|
|
% make test |
| 35 |
|
|
% make install |
| 36 |
|
|
|
| 37 |
|
|
The modules are documented using pod. When you "make install", you |
| 38 |
|
|
will get four man-pages: Locale::Language, Locale::Country, |
| 39 |
|
|
Locale::Currency, Locale::Script. |
| 40 |
|
|
|
| 41 |
|
|
The first version of Locale::Currency was written by Michael Hennecke, |
| 42 |
|
|
with modifications for inclusion by me. Kudos to Michael. |
| 43 |
|
|
|
| 44 |
|
|
Please let me know if you experience any problems with these modules, |
| 45 |
|
|
or have any ideas for additions. |
