Token identifier: posix,_1.3
POSIX-locale: posix,_1.3
Ordering in the standard POSIX locale is according to the code point order of ISO/IEC 646:1993.
The POSIX locale uses normal classification of characters, such as letters, digits, punctuation and control characters, and letters are mapped between uppercase and lowercase.
The decimal separator is FULL STOP "."
The thousands separator is void.
There is no grouping of large numbers.
The monetary formatting is not specified, as this specification should be usable in many international environments.
The weekday and month names are written with English names.
