DESCRIPTION

18       This module provides access to language code sets.
19
20       Please refer to the Locale::Codes::Types document for a description of
21       the code sets available.
22
23       Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which
24       specifies the code set to use. The code set can be specified using the
25       name of a code set, or the perl constant specified in the above
26       document.  If not specified, the default code set will be used.
27

ROUTINES

30       Locale::Codes module, using an object of type: language Please refer to

32       function.

54       The following functions are not exported and must be called fully
55       qualified with the package name:
