### Character Map Commands

## maplist

The maplist command will return a list of all the character maps loaded in the matching engine.

## mapcreate –mapname <name> [-mapchars <map-file>] [-foldcase] [-folddiacritics] [-punctuation <c>] [-whitespace <c>]

The mapcreate command will create a character map in the matching engine. Once created the character map can be used in tblload commands as the character map applied to a field. Options are:

-mapname <name> | the unique identifying name for this character map.
-mapchars <map-file> | used to set explicit character mappings. Map-file is the name of a file that consists of sets of 3 characters: <from><to><new-line> specifying that character from is mapped to character to before comparing strings. The new-line character is used to visually separate the map character sets. So the file consists of a set of lines consisting of exactly two characters. (Except that either from or to may be the new-line character.)
-foldcase | if this is present all letters are mapped to a common letter case.
-folddiacritics | if present diacritic marks are stripped from letters.
-punctuation | if present all punctuation characters are mapped to the character c.
-whitespace | if present all whitespace characters are mapped to the character c.
