Systemd <command>localectl</command> utility. To use <command>localectl</command>
for the example above, run:</para>
<screen><userinput>localectl set-locale LANG="<replaceable>&lt;ll&gt;_&lt;CC&gt;.&lt;charmap&gt;&lt;@modifiers&gt;"</replaceable></userinput></screen>
<para>You can also specify other language specific environment variables such
as <envar>LANG</envar>, <envar>LC_CTYPE</envar>, <envar>LC_NUMERIC</envar> or
any other environment variable from <command>locale</command> output. Just
seperate them with a space. An example where <envar>LANG</envar> is set as
en_US.UTF-8 but <envar>LC_CTYPE</envar> is set as just en_US is:</para>
<screen><userinput>localectl set-locale LANG="en_US.UTF-8" LC_CTYPE="en_US"</userinput></screen>
