The complete naming scheme is described in the Filesystem Hierarchy Standard (FHS-2.0) complete with references as to which standards are to be used for language and territory. I don't have an URL handy or I would include it.

AFAIK, the two-letter ISO 639 language codes in small letters are used for and two-letter ISO 3166 country codes in capitals are used for , e.g. cs_CZ is Czech language in Czech Republic.

And then, if it works, send it to me, or raise a wishlist bug to groff, so I'll se to include in the package. fab
