Hey, It's time to start supporting for modern character sets/maps in such things as titles and other things where ctwm displays strings. So I'm thinking on working on it in a separate branch (to be named later), and my plan is to have the result become part of ctwm 4.0.
I've a question before starting, to all the i18n people on the list; what would you recommend, that I go for multibyte (in other words, functions such as XmbDrawString()) or wide chars (in other words, functions such as XwcDrawString())? From a programmatic point of view, wide chars are probably better since it's easy to spot mistakes already in the compiler. But I have zero experience programming with these modern characters (yup, I'm an old ASCII/ISO-8859-1 junkie who realises it's time to get free from my addiction ;-)), so the advice from experienced people would be greatly appreciated.
