locale
Description
Options
locale displays information about the current locale and all locales accessible to the
current application. locale searches directory /usr/lib/nls/locale for all the compiled
locales.
Invoking locale with no options or operands displays the values of the LANG and
LC_* environment variables. If a LC_* variable is not set or is overridden by
LC_ALL, locale displays its implied value in double quotes.
The operand name can be a category name, keyword name, or the reserved name
charmap. If it is a category name, locale selects the given category and all
keywords within it for output. If name is a keyword name, locale selects the given
keyword and its category for output. If name is charmap, locale displays the name
of the charmap used with the localedef –f option when the locale was created.
–a Displays information about all accessible locales including POSIX, the
POSIX locale.
–c Displays the names of selected categories.
–k Displays the names of selected keywords. If you do not specify the –k
option, locale displays the values of selected keywords but not their names.
With –k, strings are written in an unambiguous form using the escape
character from the current locale.
–m Displays a list of all available character maps.

lower Lower-case alphabet
