Leopard Guides: Internationalization
Internationalization is the process of readying software to handle different text systems and locale-specific features. Localization is the process of translating an application's text elements, and adjusting the user interface, for a specific language or region. Core Foundation provides programming interfaces to manage locales, dates, and measurement systems in a consistent manner. It also provides utilities to manage and present Unicode strings. Together these help developers internationalize and localize software.
