LC_COLLATE Locale Category

The LC_COLLATE category definition in a locale source file establishes the relative order between collating elements in the locale that is compiled from that source by the LOCALDEF utility.

Collating elements are single characters or sequences of characters specified with the collating element LC_COLLATE keyword. Collating rules consist of ordered sets of collating order statements. The LC_COLLATE keywords establish a collation sequence that assigns each element one or more collation values, or collation weights.
