The file should just be named af.conf. In the absence of multiple
nations using different standardized dialects, e.g. different dialects for
South Africa & Lesotho, we don't need the country code to be added, as in
af_ZA.conf.
And Latin-1 will suffice for Afrikaans (and all other major Western
European languages).
