ABSTRACT
The presentation introduces the requirements of internationalization (I18N) and localization (L10N) on computer software, and shows the architecture of I18N and L10N of open systems. Regarding the design and implementation of I18N and L10N on UNIX systems, the character code sets and coding scheme are introduced briefly, and the locale and localeDB, input methods, font set design and ICONV subsystem are described in detail.
Keywords: internationalization, localization, locale, coding scheme,
input method, font, code conversion.
摘要
本篇演講介紹了計算機軟件國際化和本地化的各種需求, 展現了開放系統國際化和本地化的體系結構。 圍繞UNIX系統上國際化和本地化的設計實現, 簡要介紹字符代碼結構,並且對本地環境、 本地環境數據庫、輸入方法、字型設計及ICONV 代碼轉換子系統等做了較詳細之介紹。
關鍵詞:國際化、本地化、本地環境、 編碼結構、輸入方法、字型、代碼轉換
