UCS-2 to UTF-8 hex values

Hi All, I have a file containing some character mappings to UCS-2 (iso 10646-1) both represented in hex e.g : CP UCS = 2E 002E 2F 002F 30 0030 ... Has anyone written or found a script which takes 4 digit hex representation of UCS-2 as (or similar to)

2001-09-19 Thread Oodi Pilzer
Hi, I am desperately trying to figure out what are the differences between unicode v1.1 and v2.0. I of course understand that new characters have been added and that's fine. But I also understand that some character mappings have been changed and this could cause problems, as we have different

More on differences between v1.1 and v2.0

I found on the unicode.org website the character mapping for v2.0 and that for v1.1.5. I had really wanted 1.1 but that was unavailable. Anyway, I thought I would at least check what were the differences between version 2.0 and 1.1.5 Well, to my amazement, while version 2 added characters in

I have written some time ago a little C program that generates such a list for all of Unicode, not just the UCS-2 subset. It uses macros from a few ICU header files, but does not need the compiled ICU library. On Unixes, you may need to runConfigure, but on Windows it will work out of the
