ICUPKG(8)			 ICU 76.1 Manual		       ICUPKG(8)

NAME
     icupkg - extract or modify an ICU .dat archive

SYNOPSIS
     icupkg [ -h, -?, --help ] [ -tl, --type l | -tb, --type b | -te, --type e ]
     [	-c, --copyright | -C, --comment comment ] [ -a, --add list ] [ -r, --re-
     move list ] [ -x, --extract list ] [ -l, --list ] [ -s, --sourcedir  source
     ] [ -d, --destdir destination ] [ -w, --writepkg ] [ -m, --matchmode mode ]
     infilename [ outfilename ]

DESCRIPTION
     icupkg  reads  the  input ICU .dat package file, modify it according to the
     options, swap it to the desired platform properties (charset & endianness),
     and optionally write the resulting ICU .dat package  to  the  output  file.
     Items  are  removed,  then  added,  then extracted and listed.  An ICU .dat
     package is written if items are removed or added, or if the input and  out-
     put filenames differ, or if the -w, --writepkg option is set.

     If  the  input  filename is "new" then an empty package is created.  If the
     output filename is missing, then it is automatically generated from the in-
     put filename. If the input filename ends with an l, b, or	e  matching  its
     platform  properties, then the output filename will contain the letter from
     the -t, --type option.

     This tool can also be used to just swap a single ICU data	file,  replacing
     the  former  icuswap  tool.  For this mode, provide the infilename (and op-
     tional outfilename) for a non-package ICU data file.  Allowed  options  in-
     clude  -t,  -w, -s and -d The filenames can be absolute, or relative to the
     source/dest dir paths.  Other options are not allowed in this mode.

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

     -tl, --type l
	    Output for little-endian/ASCII charset family.  The output type  de-
	    faults to the input type.

     -tb, --type b
	    Output  for  big-endian/ASCII  charset  family.  The output type de-
	    faults to the input type.

     -te, --type e
	    Output for big-endian/EBCDIC charset family.  The  output  type  de-
	    faults to the input type.

     -c,--copyright
	    Include the ICU copyright notice in the resulting data.

     -C, --comment comment
	    Include  the  specified comment in the resulting data instead of the
	    ICU copyright notice.

     -a, --add list
	    Add items from the list to the package. The list  can  be  a  single
	    filename  with a .txt file extension containing a list of item file-
	    names, or an ICU .dat package filename.

     -r, --remove list
	    Remove items from the list from the package. The list can be a  sin-
	    gle  filename  with  a .txt file extension containing a list of item
	    filenames, or an ICU .dat package filename.

     -x, --extract list
	    Extract items from the list from the package. The list can be a sin-
	    gle filename with a .txt file extension containing a  list	of  item
	    filenames, or an ICU .dat package filename.

     -m, --matchmode mode
	    Set the matching mode for item names with wildcards.

     -s, --sourcedir source
	    Set the source directory to source.  The default source directory is
	    the current directory.

     -d, --destdir destination
	    Set  the destination directory to destination.  The default destina-
	    tion directory is the current directory.

     -l, --list
	    List the package items to stdout (after modifying the package).

LIST FILE SYNTAX
     Items are	listed	on  one  or  more  lines  and  separated  by  whitespace
     (space+tab).   Comments  begin  with # and are ignored. Empty lines are ig-
     nored.  Lines  where  the	first  non-whitespace  character   is	one   of
     "%&'()*+,-./:;<=>?_ are also ignored to reserve for future syntax.

     Items  for removal or extraction may contain a single * wildcard character.
     The * matches zero or more characters. If -m, --matchmode noslash	is  set,
     then the * character does not match the / character.

     Items  must  be  listed relative to the package, and the --sourcedir or the
     --destdir path will be prepended. The paths  are  only  prepended	to  item
     filenames while adding or extracting items, not to ICU .dat package or list
     filenames.

     Paths  may contain / instead of the platform's file separator character and
     are converted as appropriate.
