You can create, edit, and print language-specific files. You can also give files language-specific names. However, for system administration files that are shared across a network, the file names should just contain ASCII characters. Different systems on the network might be using different locales.
If you have logged in to the desktop in a specific language, all applications will be invoked using that language. However, you can still invoke an application with another language.
If you want to create a file with a different language, invoke a new instance of Text Editor specifying your desired language.
where Japanese_locale sets the value of the LANG environment variable for the Japanese character set. Refer to your specific platform to determine the value for Japanese_locale.
To start Text Editor with the Japanese language directly, type:
/usr/dt/bin/dtpad -xnllanguage Japanese_locale
You can now enter Japanese characters if the locale-specific files have been installed. You can also use the Text Editor session to edit a previously created Japanese file.
See "To Specify Fonts from the Command Line" for an example of specifying a font set.
