Citrus Project

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The CITRUS (Comprehensive I18N Framework Towards Respectable Unix Systems) project aims to implement a complete multilingual programming environment for BSD-based operating systems. The goals include the creation of the following things for FreeBSD, NetBSD, OpenBSD, BSD/OS and Dragonfly BSD:

  • An ISO C/SUS V2-compatible multilingual programming environment (locale/iconv support).
  • Development of an implementation of gettext and POSIX NLS catalog under the BSD license.
  • Multi-script framework, which decouples C API and actual external/internal encoding.
  • To develop system standard multi-script encoding by internationalization of filename.

For now, the aim is to reach the same level of functionality as Solaris 7.
