| .B gennames |
| reads the Unicode character database from |
| .I filename |
| and produce the file |
| .I unames.dat |
| in its destination directory. |
| Optionally, Unicode 1.0 names can be chosen over Unicode 2.0 names for |
| those code points whose names were changed for Unicode 2.0. |
| .SH OPTIONS |
| .TP |

| .TP |
| .BI "\-d\fP, \fB\-\-destdir" " destination" |
| Set the destination directory to |
| .IR destination . |
| The default destination directory is specified by the environment variable |
| .BR ICU_DATA , |
| or the location set when ICU was built if |
| .B ICU_DATA |
| is not set. |
| .TP |
| .BI "\-u\fP, \fB\-\-unicode" " version" |
| Mark the character names as belong to the specified |
| .I version |
| of Unicode. The default version is 3.1.1. |
| .TP |
| .BI "\-1\fP, \fB\-\-unicode1-names" |
| Store Unicode 1.0 names in addition of Unicode 2.0 names for |
| those code points whose names were changed for Unicode 2.0. |
| .SH ENVIRONMENT |
| .TP 10 |
| .B ICU_DATA |
| Specifies the directory containing ICU data. Defaults to |
| .BR @thepkgicudatadir@/@PACKAGE@/@VERSION@/ . |
| Some tools in ICU depend on the presence of the trailing slash. It is thus |
| important to make sure that it is present if |
| .B ICU_DATA |
| is set. |
