Configuring FacetTerm for Localized Language Support

Starting with version 3.2.1, FacetTerm has added localized language
support to the "facetterm" program (but not to the associated
administrative support programs).  The language files included are
French, Italian, German and Spanish.  Terminals supported are those
that have either the 8859 character set (DEC Supplemental Graphic
set or ISO Latin-1 set) or the pc850 character set (IBM PC character
set) as the default characters displayed when the high order bit of
the character is on.

FacetTerm will use the standard UNIX environment variable $LANG, if
it is set, to locate the text files for the indicated language.  The
UNIX environment variable $FACETLANG has been added which, if it is
set, takes precedence over $LANG for locating FacetTerm text files.
This allows the FacetTerm language facility to be invoked without
changing (or setting) the $LANG variable from its current setting.

To install the international language files on a system that has
FacetTerm version 3.2.1 or later installed:

1.  Log in as root.

2.  Change directory to /usr/facetterm:

        cd /usr/facetterm

3.  Run the international language installation script:

        ./inst.inter

    this will create the following directories under
    /usr/facetterm/text:

        french/france/8859
        french/france/pc850
        german/germany/8859
        german/germany/pc850
        italian/italy/8859
        italian/italy/pc850
        spanish/americas/8859
        spanish/americas/pc850

    To use the files, set the FACETLANG variable to the directory
    containing the appropriate language and character set and then
    export FACETLANG before starting FacetTerm.  For instance, to
    see German prompts on a vt320:

        FACETLANG=german/germany/8859; export FACETLANG
        facetterm

    Since one of the standard ways of writing this choice is to
    separate the language and the territory with an underscore, and
    to separate the territory and the character set with a period,
    if the LANG or the FACETLANG variable is of the form:

        language_territory.codeset

    it will be transformed into:

        language/territory/codeset

    for use in finding the text files.  Consequently, the following
    example works exactly the same as the example above:

        FACETLANG=german_germany.8859; export FACETLANG
        facetterm

    An alternative method to setting the FACETLANG or LANG variable
    for systems where all users want the same language and codeset
    is to create a /usr/facetterm/localtext directory, and move the
    files from the appropriate directory to the localtext directory.

    If you will not be using the international language files, you may
    remove the file /usr/facetterm/text/intertext.Z to save disk space.
