GENBRK(1)			 ICU 76.1 Manual		       GENBRK(1)

NAME
     genbrk  -	Compiles ICU break iteration rules source files into binary data
     files

SYNOPSIS
     genbrk [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -V, --version ]  [  -c,  --copyright  ]  [  -v,
     --verbose	]  [  -d, --destdir destination ] [ -i, --icudatadir directory ]
     -r, --rules rule-file -o, --out output-file

DESCRIPTION
     genbrk reads the break (boundary) rule source code from rule-file and  cre-
     ates  a break iteration data file. Normally this data file has the .brk ex-
     tension.

     The details of the rule syntax can be found in ICU's User Guide.

OPTIONS
     -h, -?, --help
	    Print help about usage and exit.

     -V, --version
	    Print the version of genbrk and exit.

     -c, --copyright
	    Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the output-file.

     -v, --verbose
	    Display extra informative messages during execution.

     -d, --destdir destination
	    Set the destination directory of the output-file to destination.

     -i, --icudatadir directory
	    Look for any necessary ICU data files in  directory.   For	example,
	    the  file pnames.icu must be located when ICU's data is not built as
	    a shared library.  The default ICU data directory  is  specified  by
	    the  environment  variable	ICU_DATA.  Most configurations of ICU do
	    not require this argument.

     -r, --rules rule-file
	    The source file to read.

     -o, --out output-file
	    The output data file to write.

CAVEATS
     When the rule-file contains a byte order mark (BOM) at the beginning of the
     file, which is the Unicode character U+FEFF, then the rule-file  is  inter-
     preted  as Unicode. Without the BOM, the file is interpreted in the current
     operating system default codepage.  In order to eliminate any ambiguity  of
     the  encoding for how the rule-file was written, it is recommended that you
     write this file in UTF-8 with the BOM.

ENVIRONMENT
     ICU_DATA  Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults  to  ${pre-
	       fix}/share/icu/76.1/.   Some  tools in ICU depend on the presence
	       of the trailing slash. It is thus important to make sure that  it
	       is present if ICU_DATA is set.
