  25 (1) Format of mapping files
  26
  27 Each line contains a code point and the corresponding Unicode
  28 character code separated by a space.  Both code points and Unicode
  29 character codes are in hexadecimal preceded by "0x".  Comments may be
  30 used, starting with "#".  Code ranges may also be used, with
  31 (inclusive) start and end code points separated by "-" followed by the
  32 unicode of the start of the range
  33
  34 Examples:
  35 0xA0 0x00A0  # no-break space
  36
  37 0x8141-0x8143 0x4E04 # map onto a Unicode range

  40 (2) Source of mapping files
  41
  42 Most mapping files are generated from the data files distributed with
  43 glibc (under the sub-directory "localedata/charmaps").  This list
  44 shows the correspondence of the data file, the mapping file, and which
  45 charset uses it.
