Hi all.

I've got one system, where (for historical reasons) an exotic 1-byte charset
is used. And now I'd like to add support for it to my xterm (I'm using luit).

So far, I took luit sources and played with them a bit. As I see from the
code, I can add an entry in localeCharsets array for my encoding. After doing
that, I need to create some charset definition (via Compose file?) for my
encoding and put it into XFree locales directory (along with XI18N_OBJS
and XLC_LOCALE files). Is it so? Or is there a better/easier way?

In general --- how to add an exotic charset to the Xfree the "right
way", i.e. not doing ugly hacks in the code (luit's code in my case)? 

I tried to google for howtos or any other docs without any luck. Also, I've
checked this list's archives -- nothing appropriate.

Thank you.
