*blush* oops ... my work is in fact 5 months overdue ... it started way back in January -_-; Seems like I'd have to do some more work this weekend :p (the code is sitting on my hard disk, just needs to be cleaned up and packaged. I have been using it for 5 months, so you can say it's tested :p) > See the Microsoft HK link below (only a week old); looks like they have > font and input methods--I haven't taken a look at them yet. If I haven't been so lazy we'd have beaten them by a couple of months.. in fact it was "nearly" demoed at Linuxworld HK ... Actually, IIRC, someone mentioned this very same subject in netscape.public.mozilla.i18n way back in January .. I think the the Mozilla team was then concerned with whether HKSCS is a widely accepted and used standard. Not sure what happened then since. > Thomas Chan > [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > ---------- Forwarded message ---------- > > Microsft has already released support for HKSCS, you can visit web site > http://www.microsoft.com/hk/hkscs for details. >From the READMEs available there, it seems they are having lots of problems with how their own applications (Office2K) use Unicode... I haven't been able to have a look at the "Technical White Paper" yet, which, of course, is in Word97 .doc format...
