+ Note that you can modify /etc/locale.conf with
+ Systemd localectl utility. To use localectl
+ for the example above, run:
+
+localectl set-locale LANG="<ll>_<CC>.<charmap><@modifiers>"
+
+ You can also specify other language specific environment variables such
+ as LANG, LC_CTYPE, LC_NUMERIC or
+ any other environment variable from locale output. Just
+ seperate them with a space. An example where LANG is set as
+ en_US.UTF-8 but LC_CTYPE is set as just en_US is:
+
+localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8" LC_CTYPE="en_US"
+
+ Please note that localectl command can
+ be used only on a system booted with Systemd.

uses the US-ASCII 7-bit character set, and treats bytes with the high bit set
