Or perhaps I'm just reacting to the confusion of the UniCode

would do? But the first idea certainly wouldn't hurt.

What is going to be done about the confusion generated from
having multiple ways to encode the same character?
For example, for filenames, OSX will encode an accented Roman
letter one way, while for filenames Windows will encode it the
other way. These kind of confusions are totally expected,
appreciate
them. ;-)
Thats a shame. Simplicity is wonderful.

But it doesn't tell us the difference. I know what a combining
sequence is. If I didn't know what a composite was, I'd guess it
was the same thing as a combining sequence.

Perhaps this code should be tightened up along with the standard

if the UTF was valid UTF8, nevermind then, its all OK.

Whats the point of having more Latin characters? Do they look

ATSUI for Carbon on OS9 work if ATSUI for Classic OS9 doesn't?

Hi list,
I'm directly calling ATSUI, for a framework I am writing.
I have a character of value 987, Stigma. This is part of my UTF16
string. The rest of the string displays just fine. But my Stigma
doesn't, it shows up as the Rectangle.
What is wrong? Is it something to do with font
Stigma is not a common character. Can you see it in any applications?
Which fonts do you have that contain Greek characters?
On a standard OS X install, I think this character is only present in
the
Japanese Hiragino Pro fonts. Also in Code2000, if you add this.
I don't know what fonts
My first reaction, is that the logos don't look like they compare to
other logos in terms of style. For example Mac OSX logos, XML logos,
and that generally do look more snazzy.
My second reaction is that I hope I haven't annoyed anyone.
My third was that I probably ought to say it anyhow.

If you really aren't processing anything but the ASCII characters
within
your strings, like and in your example, you can probably get
away with keeping your existing byte-oriented code. At least you won't
get false matches on the ASCII characters (this was

Can someone give me some advice? If I was to write a dictionary class
for Unicode, would I be better off writing it using a b-tree, or
hash-bin system? Or maybe an array of pointers to arrays system?

I've looked into the TST thing.
I'm not sure that it is optimal, despite how popular they are!
Look at this, if I add 1, 2,3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 to a

the high node.
So, to find 9, I have to read through 9 items!

Hi Mark,
Your tries are nice, however they are being used for single unicode
characters, not a whole string of them, right? Well, sure some of them
are being used for whole strings, but for me, ALL of mine will be used
for whole strings. Yours are quite rare.

I've often wanted to type a symbol, that's like an exclamation mark,
and a comma at the same time. That is, instead of the . on the bottom
of a !, it has a , instead.
Is there such a Unicode code point? Just out of curiosity! Or I
suppose, is there a way to compose such a character.
UTF8 into different files! That way I
can use readline type code to do my UTF-8 verification.
It would be nice if someone had a automated test ready UTF-8 file.
If not, I'll modify this one and then put the results up on my website,
someday. (week or so).

Does this file mix UTF-8 and UTF-16? I thought it just had surrogates

Are the Unicode Code Points from +U0 to +UFF, equivalent to the Windows

Or is it equivalent to ISO-Latin-1?
