EXTERNAL INFLUENCES

Environment Variables

LC_MESSAGES determines the language in which messages are displayed.

If LC_MESSAGES is not speciﬁed in the environment or is set to the empty string, the value of

LANG is

used as a default for each unspeciﬁed or empty variable. If

LANG is not speciﬁed or is set to the empty

string, a default of "C" (see lang(5)) is used instead of

LANG.

If any internationalization variable contains an invalid setting,

quota behaves as if all internationaliza-

tion variables are set to "C". See environ(5).

International Code Set Support

Single- and multi-byte character code sets are supported.
