(For example, Japanese basic character set (JIS X 0208) has several thousands of characters. 12-year-old Japanese person should know roughly one thousand characters and adults should know much more.) And, how about fullwidth characters (i.e., return value of wcwidth() is 2) and combining characters (wcwidth() is 0), like xterm supports them? I am looking forward to linuxconsole project http://linuxconsole.sourceforge.net/ Do you know the project? --- Tomohiro KUBOTA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/ -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
