I also have received similar spam from various servers located in Korea and
in Hong Kong. If I wanted to go to the trouble of installing some special
code page and installing some special APM, if hypothetically some were
available for Korean and Chinese language support, then would I be able to
view the "real" Korean and Chinese characters? Would this be possible? I
have been told that some Chinese dialects, such as Mandarin, for example,
have as many as 4000 characters in their alphabets. I have never worked with
any special code pages or APMs for international language support. I have
asked questions on this topic and have received some guidance on the subject.
I am so curious that I think I'm about to try some experiments along these
lines soon.
All the best,
Sam Heywood
P.S. Oh, another question: Do there exist some special HTML whsiwhyg
editors along with self-adhesive little labels to be used for renaming
the keys on the keyboard? Such would be a very nice accesssory to help
provide for international language support. And what about text editors
that allow you to type from right to left? Are these available also?
