-.TH MAKE_SMBCODEPAGE 1 "03 Nov 1997" "make_smbcodepage 1.9.18alpha11"
-.SH NAME
-make_smbcodepage \- create a binary codepage definition file from an ascii codepage definition source file, or reverse the process.
-.SH SYNOPSIS
-.B make_smbcodepage
-.I c|d
-.I codepage
-.I inputfile
-.I outputfile
-.SH DESCRIPTION
-This program is part of the Samba suite.
-
-.B make_smbcodepage
-compiles or de-compiles codepage files for use with the internationalization
-features of Samba 1.9.18.
-
-An ascii Samba codepage definition file is a description that tells Samba
-how to map from upper to lower case for characters greater than ascii 127
-in the specified DOS code page. Note that for certain DOS codepages
-(437 for example) mapping from lower to upper case may be asynchronous.
-For example, in code page 437 lower case a acute maps to a plain upper
-case A when going from lower to upper case, but maps from plain upper
-case A to plain lower case a when lower casing a character.
-
-A binary Samba codepage definition file is a binary representation
-of the same information, including a value that specifies what codepage
-this file is describing.
-
-As Samba does not yet use UNICODE (current for Samba version 1.9.18)
-you must specify the client code page that your DOS and Windows clients
-are using if you wish to have case insensitivity done correctly for
-your particular language. The default codepage Samba uses is 850
-(Western European). Ascii codepage definition sample files are provided
-in the Samba distribution for codepages 437 (USA), 850 (Western European)
-852 (MS-DOS Latin 2) and 932 (Kanji SJIS). Users are encouraged to
-write ascii codepage definition files for their own code pages and
-donate them to samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au. All codepage files in the
-Samba source directory are compiled and installed when a 'make install'
-command is issued there.
-
-An ascii codepage definition file consists of multiple lines containing
-four fields. These fields are :
-.B lower
-which is the (hex) lower case character mapped on this line.
-.B upper
-which is the (hex) upper case character that the lower case character
-will map to.
-.B map upper to lower
-which is a boolean value (put either True or False here) which tells
-Samba if it is to map the given upper case character to the given
-lower case character when lower casing a filename.
-.B map lower to upper
-which is a boolean value (put either True or False here) which tells
-Samba if it is to map the given lower case character to the given
-upper case character when upper casing a filename.

-.SH OPTIONS
-.I c|d
-
-.RS 3
-This tells make_smbcodepage if it is compiling (c) an ascii code page file
-to binary, or de-compiling a binary codepage file to ascii.
-.RE
-
-.I codepage
-
-.RS 3
-This is the codepage we are processing (a number, eg. 850)
-.RE
-
-.I inputfile
-
-.RS 3
-This is the input file to process.
-.RE
-
-.I outputfile
-
-.RS 3
-This is the output file to produce.
-.RE
-
-.SH FILES
-.B codepage_def.<codepage>
-.RS 3
-These are the input (ascii) codepage files provided in the Samba
-source/ directory.
-.RE
-.SH FILES
-.B codepage.<codepage>
-.RS 3
-These are the output (binary) codepage files produced and placed in the Samba
-destination lib/codepage/ directory.
-.RE
-
-.SH ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
-Not applicable.
-.SH INSTALLATION
-The location of the server and its support files is a matter for individual
-system administrators. The following are thus suggestions only.
-
-It is recommended that the
-.B make_smbcodepage
-program be installed under the /usr/local/samba hierarchy, in a directory readable
-by all, writeable only by root. The program itself should be executable by all.
-The program should NOT be setuid or setgid!
-.SH VERSION
-This man page is (mostly) correct for version 1.9.18 of the Samba suite, plus some
-of the recent patches to it. These notes will necessarily lag behind
-development of the software, so it is possible that your version of
-the program has extensions or parameter semantics that differ from or are not
-covered by this man page. Please notify these to the address below for
-rectification.
