Loads the specified locale name into the system memory as shared,
   read-only global data.

   LOCALE LOAD is a privileged OpenVMS command, typically issued by
   the system manager, and requiring the following privileges:

    o  SYSGBL

    o  PRMGBL

   Format:

        LOCALE LOAD name

1  –  Parameter

   name

     A character string that identifies the locale to be loaded.
     This can be one of the following:

      o  The name of the public locale

         The format of the name is:

              language_country.codeset[@modifier]

         LOCALE LOAD searches for the public locale binary file in
         the location defined by the logical name SYS$I18N_LOCALE.
         The file type defaults to .LOCALE.  The period (.) and
         at-sign (@) characters in the name specified are replaced by
         an underscore character (_).

      o  A file specification

         Specifies the binary locale file.  This can be any valid
         file specification.  If either the device or directory is
         not specified, LOCALE LOAD first applies the current
         caller's device and directory as defaults.  If the file is
         not found, the device and directory defined by the
         SYS$I18N_LOCALE logical name are used as defaults.  The file
         type defaults to .LOCALE.

         Wildcards are not allowed.  The binary locale file cannot
         reside on a remote node.
