# 24.4 Compiling i18n Programs

Many applications in the FreeBSD Ports Collection have been ported with i18n support. Some of these include `-i18n` in the port name. These and many other programs have built in support for i18n and need no special consideration.

However, some applications such as MySQL need to have their `Makefile` configured with the specific charset. This is usually done in the port's `Makefile` or by passing a value to configure in the source.
