+.SH NAME
+locale \- get locale-specific information
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+.nf
+.BR locale " [OPTION]"
+.BR locale " [OPTION] \-a"
+.BR locale " [OPTION] \-m"
+.BR locale " [OPTION] NAME..."
+.fi
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+The
+.B locale
+command displays information about the current locale, or all locales,
+on standard output.
+
+When invoked without arguments,
+.B locale
+displays the current locale settings for each locale category (see
+.BR locale (5)),
+based on the settings of the environment variables that control the locale
+(see
+.BR locale (7)).
+
+If either the
+.B \-a
+or the
+.B \-m
+option (or one of their long-format equivalents) is specified,
+the behavior is as follows:
+.TP
+.BR \-a ", " \-\-all\-locales
+Display a list of all available locales.
+The
+.B -v
+option causes the
+.B LC_IDENTIFICATION
+metadata about each locale to be included in the output.
+.TP
+.BR \-m ", " \-\-charmaps
+Display the available charmaps (character set description files).
+.PP
+The
+.I locale
+command can also be provided with one or more arguments,
+which are the names of locale keywords (for example,
+.IR date_fmt ,
+.IR ctype-class-names ,
+.IR yesexpr ,
+or
+.IR decimal_point )
+or locale categories (for example,
+.BR LC_CTYPE
+or
+.BR LC_TIME ).
+For each argument, the following is displayed:
+.IP * 3
+For a locale keyword, the value of that keyword to be displayed.
+.IP *
+For a locale category,
+the values of all keywords in that category are displayed.
+.PP
+When arguments are supplied, the following options are meaningful:
+.TP
+.BR "\-c" ", " \-\-category\-name"
+For a category name argument,
+write the name of the locale category
+on a separate line preceding the list of keyword values for that category.
+
+For a keyword name argument,
+write the name of the locale category for this keyword
+on a separate line preceding the keyword value.
+
+This option improves readability when multiple name arguments are specified.
+It can be combined with the
+.B \-k
+option.
+.TP
+.BR "\-k" ", " "\-\-keyword\-name"
+For each keyword whose value is being displayed,
+include also the name of that keyword,
+so that the output has the format:
+
+    \fIkeyword\fP="\fIvalue\fP"
+
+.PP
+The
+.I locale
+command also knows about the following options:
+.TP
+.BR "\-v" ", " "\-\-verbose"
+Display additional information for some command-line option and argument
+combinations.
+.TP
+.BR "\-?" ", " "\-\-help"
+Display a summary of command-line options and arguments and exit.
+.TP
+.BR "\-\-usage"
+Display a short usage message and exit.
+.TP
+.BR "\-V" ", " "\-\-version"
+Display the program version and exit.
