+.TH MAKE_SMBCODEPAGE 1 make_smbcodepage make_smbcodepage
+.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.
+.SH SEE ALSO
+.BR smb.conf (5),
+.BR smbd (8)
+
+.SH BUGS
+None known.
+.SH CREDITS
+The
+.B make_smbcodepage
+program was written by Jeremy Allison (jallison@whistle.com) as part of the
+Internationalization effort of the Samba software.
+
+Please send bug reports to samba-bugs@samba.anu.edu.au.

+.BR samba (7)

+submit bug reports, comments etc.
