This chapter provides any platform-specific information for Linux OS and macOS you may require.
Before installing and using the clrip command line application the locale may need to be configured. Open a terminal window and set the locale using:
export LANG=en_US export LC_ALL=en_US
If en_US.UTF-8 is your system's default you can use:
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8 export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
NOTE: To avoid having to set the locale each time you open a terminal window, you can make the following changes:
Edit /etc/rc.d/rc.local / by adding:
echo "Setting locale"
usr/bin/localedef -i en_US -f ISO-8859-1 en_US
Edit /etc/profile by adding the following two lines to the end of the file:
export LC_ALL=en_US
export LANG=en_US
or, if en_US.UTF-8 is your system's default you can add:
export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
export LC_ALL=en_US.UTF-8
If the locale is set incorrectly the clrip command line application may report errors, or the process may not close after an output.
Similarly the imptool may report:
Error: Failed to build character decoding tables (check your locale settings).
