The capability of international computer users to interact with their systems using their own local languages and cultural conventions isn't just desirable; it has become a necessity. Within the competitive marketplace, only those software products that can provide this adaptability can realistically expect to achieve high international acceptance. Using a task-oriented approach, this book explains how to create, modify, and run Unix-based software in international environments, and is the most readable guide to Unix internationalization available. For software developers, localizers, and managers of products to be marketed internationally―ranging from novices to knowledgeable users of internationalization.

Presented in a hands-on, highly readable fashion, this book covers the latest techniques and tips for creating and using internationalized software. It begins with a model for the internationalization of software and progresses through standard UNIX internationalization features. From tasks such as correct handling of characters across languages and codesets, programming, administering, and translating program messages, setting and modifying the desired local language environment and more, authors Tom Madell, Clark Parsons, and John Abegg provide a detailed examination of this increasingly timely area of concern. Topics include understanding internationalization, running internationalized software, developing internationalized software, localizing internationalized software, special programming topics, and creating a new language environment. Whether used as a textbook or as an addition to your personal reference library, Developing and Localizing International Software is a valuable addition to the Hewlett-Packard Professional Book series.
