Common Information for a Language

You can display the following locale information for a language:

• Common territories (Common Territories In Current Locale)
• Common character sets (Common Character Sets In Current Locale)
• Common Windows character sets (Common Charsets for Windows In Current Locale)
• Common linguistic sorts (Common Linguistic Sorts In Current Locale)

The information is generally displayed so that more common items are listed first. For example, when the language is MALAY, the common territories are MALAYSIA and INDONESIA. The common character sets are WE8ISO8859P1, WE8MSWIN1252, AL32UTF8, and WE8ISO8859P15. The common Windows character sets are the same, but WE8MSWIN1252 precedes WE8ISO8859P1 because it is more common in a Windows environment. The common linguistic sorts are MALAY, GENERIC_M, and BINARY.
