			Locale-Codes Distribution

For changes in this release, please refer to the Locale::Changes
man-page.

For changes prior to 3.00, please see the ChangeLog file.

This distribution contains Perl modules which can be used to process
ISO codes for identifying languages, countries, scripts,
and currencies & funds.

    Locale::Language

	Codes for language identification including ISO 639.

	For example, 'en' is the code for 'English'.

    Locale::Country

	Codes for country identification including ISO 3166
        and FIPS 10.

	For example, 'us' is the code for 'United States'.

    Locale::Currency

	Codes for currency and fund identification including
        ISO 4217.

	For example, 'sek' is the code for 'Swedish Krona'.

    Locale::Script

	Codes for script identification including ISO 15924.

        For example, 'Phnx' is the code for 'Phoenician'.

The modules are documented using pod. When you "make install", you
will get man-pages: Local::Codes and each of the modules listed above.

The first version of Locale::Currency was written by Michael Hennecke,
with modifications by Neil Bowers for inclusion.

The first versions of Locale::Language, Locale::Country, and Locale::Script
were written by Neil Bowers.

Please let me know if you experience any problems with these modules,
or have any ideas for additions.

Also, I plan on releasing a new version a couple of times a year to make
sure that all of the codes are current. If a code changes in any standard,
and you want a new release, just email me and I'll put out a new release.
