Normally this data file has the +.B .brk +extension. +.PP +The details of the rule syntax can be found in ICU's User Guide. +.SH OPTIONS +.TP +.BR "\-h\fP, \fB\-?\fP, \fB\-\-help" +Print help about usage and exit. +.TP +.BR "\-V\fP, \fB\-\-version" +Print the version of +.B genbrk +and exit. +.TP +.BR "\-c\fP, \fB\-\-copyright" +Embeds the standard ICU copyright into the +.IR output-file . +.TP +.BR "\-v\fP, \fB\-\-verbose" +Display extra informative messages during execution. +.TP +.BI "\-d\fP, \fB\-\-destdir" " destination" +Set the destination directory of the +.IR output-file +to +.IR destination . +.TP +.BI "\-i\fP, \fB\-\-icudatadir" " directory" +Look for any necessary ICU data files in +.IR directory . +For example, the file +.B pnames.icu +must be located when ICU's data is not built as a shared library. +The default ICU data directory is specified by the environment variable +.BR ICU_DATA . +Most configurations of ICU do not require this argument. +.TP +.BI "\-r\fP, \fB\-\-rules" " rule\-file" +The source file to read. +.TP +.BI "\-o\fP, \fB\-\-out" " output\-file" +The output data file to write. +.SH CAVEATS +When the +.IR rule-file +contains a byte order mark (BOM) at the beginning of the file, which is the Unicode character +.B U+FEFF, +then the +.IR rule-file +is interpreted as Unicode. Without the BOM, +the file is interpreted in the current operating system default codepage. +In order to eliminate any ambiguity of the encoding for how the +.IR rule-file +was written, it is recommended that you write this file in UTF-8 +with the BOM. +.SH ENVIRONMENT +.TP 10 +.B ICU_DATA +Specifies the directory containing ICU data.
