idnalias.conf(5) File Formats Manual idnalias.conf(5) NAME idnalias.conf - encoding alias file for idnkit SYNOPSIS /usr/local/etc/idnalias.conf DESCRIPTION The idnalias.conf file defines aliases of encoding names. It is lo- cated on /usr/local/etc/idnalias.conf and always loaded automatically as idn2.conf and .idn2rc. When the idnkit library encodes or decodes an internationalized domain name, it converts the domain name between a local encoding (e.g. ISO8859-1) and Unicode using iconv(). At run time, the idnkit library guesses the local encoding from locale information to do the conver- sions, but iconv() may not know the encoding name taken from locale in- formation. Using idnalias.conf, you can avoid the trouble. The aliases in this file can be used just as the real names. The alias file is a simple text file, consisting of lines (other than comment lines, which begin with ``#'', and empty lines) of the form: alias-name real-name where alias-name is an alias name to be defined, and real-name is its real name or another alias name. ``*'' in alias-name has special mean- ing. It matches any string, including an empty string.
