Due to C<cmp> -and overload magic, C<lt>, C<le>, C<eq>, C<ge>, and C<gt> work also. The -available locales depend on your operating system; try whether C<locale --a> shows them or the more direct approach C<ls /usr/lib/nls/loc> or C<ls -/usr/lib/nls>. The locale names are probably something like -"xx_XX.(ISO)?8859-N". |
