What Deepayanda probably meant is that there are significant parts of Debian-specific (and by extension Ubuntu-specific) software that is not Unicode 4.1.0 compliant. The compliance of the Desktop portion of the distribution doesn't mean we can call the distribution Unicode 4.1.0 compliant. Of course the modularity of a *nix system maybe a trifle too difficult to understand for people used to MS Windows :) -- Soumyadip Modak Mobile : 94330 65971 [EMAIL PROTECTED] [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.randomink.org/soumyadip ------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: Tame your development challenges with Apache's Geronimo App Server.
