Hungarian, hungarian - Introduction to Hungarian language
support
This reference page describes the codeset, locale, device,
and other kinds of support for the Hungarian language.
Codesets [Toc] [Back]
The operating system supports the following coded character
sets (codesets) for Hungarian by means of locales,
codeset converters, or both: ISO 8859-2 (ISO Latin-2)
ISO8859-2 is the string that represents this codeset
in the names of locales and codeset converters.
See iso8859-2(5) for more information. UTF-16,
UCS-4, and UTF-8
UTF-16, UCS-4, and UTF-8 are the strings that represent
these encoding formats in the names of
locales and codeset converters. See Unicode(5) for
more information. PC code pages
cp852 and cp1250 are the strings that represent
these encoding formats in the names of codeset converters.
See code_page(5) for more information.
See i18n_intro(5) and l10n_intro(5) for introductory
information on codesets. See iconv_intro(5) for a discussion
of codeset converters and how to use them.
Locales [Toc] [Back]
The operating system provides the following Hungarian
locales: hu_HU.ISO8859-2
This locale also exists under the name
hu_HU.ISO8859-2@ucs4 for use by applications that
need to convert file data in ISO8859-2 format to
UCS-4 process code to perform certain kinds of
character operations. hu_HU.UTF-8
UTF-8 locales support file code and internal process
code according to ISO 10646 and Unicode standards.
File code, in UTF-8 locales, may include
characters encoded in more than 1 byte; therefore,
use these locales in applications that can process
multibyte data. The UTF-8 locale supports the euro
monetary symbol; see euro(5).
You can use the locale command (see locale(1)) to find out
which locales are installed on your system. See
i18n_intro(5) for information on setting a locale from the
operating system command line.
In the Common Desktop Environment (CDE), you need to set a
locale by setting the session language. To do this, from
the Options menu of the Login window, choose Language.
Then, from the Language options menu, choose a session
language.
Keyboards [Toc] [Back]
The operating system supports the following VT-style and
PC-style keyboards with Hungarian characters printed on
the keys:
----------------------------------------------
VT-Style (105/108 keys) PC-Style (102 keys)
----------------------------------------------
LK411-BQ LK471-BQ
LK461-BQ LK47W-BQ
LK46W-BQ LK97W-BQ
PCXAL-HQ
PCXAL-LQ
PCXAL-PQ
PCXAL-SQ
----------------------------------------------
For your keyboard to function correctly with your system,
you must load a keyboard mapping table (keymap) that is
appropriate for your keyboard's model and language. If you
load a keymap that does not correspond to your keyboard's
model and language, your keyboard behavior is unpredictable.
The label located on the bottom surface of a
keyboard usually specifies its model (five-letter code)
and language (two-letter code). See keyboard(5) for general
information on keymaps and instructions for loading
them in different formats. The following tables supply
Hungarian-specific information that you need when loading
keymaps.

LK46W-BQ hungarian lk411bq PCXAL-HQ hungarian pcxalhq
PCXAL-LQ hungarian pcxallq
PCXAL-PQ hungarian pcxalpq
PCXAL-SQ hungarian pcxalhq
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Keyboards can have keys with characters printed on both
the left and right half of the keycap. The way you set or
use your keyboard to send different sets of characters
varies from one keyboard model to another. Furthermore,
your keyboard allows you to enter more characters than
those printed on the keycaps. See keyboard(5) for
information on how to enter characters.
Printers [Toc] [Back]
See i18n_printing(5) for a discussion of printer-support
options. The PostScript fonts available for languages supported
by the ISO 8859-2 codeset are listed in
