7 | This distribution contains four Perl modules which can be used to process |
8 | ISO codes for identifying languages, countries, scripts, |
9 | and currencies & funds. |
10 | |
11 | Locale::Language |
12 | Two letter codes for language identification (ISO 639). |
13 | For example, 'en' is the code for 'English'. |
14 | |
15 | Locale::Country |
16 | Codes for country identification (ISO 3166). This module |
17 | supports the three different code sets defined by the |
18 | standard: alpha-2, alpha-3, and numeric codes. |
19 | For example, 'bo' is the code for 'Bolivia'. |
20 | |
21 | Locale::Currency |
22 | Three letter codes for currency and fund identification (ISO 4217). |
23 | For example, 'sek' is the code for 'Swedish Krona'. |
24 | |
25 | Locale::Script |
26 | Codes for script identification (ISO 15924). This module supports |
27 | the three different code sets defined by the standard: |
28 | alpha-2, alpha-3, and numeric codes. |
29 | |
30 | To install these modules, you should just have to run the following: |
31 | |
32 | % perl Makefile.PL |
33 | % make |
34 | % make test |
35 | % make install |
36 | |
37 | The modules are documented using pod. When you "make install", you |
6b14ceb7 |
38 | will get four man-pages: Locale::Language, Locale::Country, |
6b6e008c |
39 | Locale::Currency, Locale::Script. |
40 | |
41 | The first version of Locale::Currency was written by Michael Hennecke, |
42 | with modifications for inclusion by me. Kudos to Michael. |
43 | |
44 | Please let me know if you experience any problems with these modules, |
45 | or have any ideas for additions. |
