Description
-charmap name
Names the character set that corresponds to the specified locale. You should set this to name a character set that your system can display properly.

For information on the supported locales and relevant character sets, see
Appendix D, "Supported Languages."

NOTE: This is NOT the name of the character set of documents being indexed, it is only the name of the character set that your display can handle properly.
-locale name
Names the locale, or language, that you want to designate for the collection. The language name corresponds to the name of a directory underneath common that contains language configuration files. The search engine uses these configuration files to know how to perform searches in different languages. The default is english.

For information on the supported locales and relevant character sets, see
Appendix D, "Supported Languages."
