Microsoft *never* change their modified version of Unicode. What we can do is to call the encoding as non-Unicode, though they call it Unicode. > It wouldn't help people that actually > need to *use* the Yen symbol, since there'd still be no way to input the > real single-width yen symbol, though it might be possible to add that to > the input method. I think input method is not problem now. It is because (1) In Japanese version of Windows, *only* subset of Unicode which has conversion to CP932 is used because Unicode is limited to internal processing and text files which users treat are almost always CP932, and (2) if encoding or mapping table is changed, then input method should be modified as a matter of course. --- Tomohiro KUBOTA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/ "Introduction to I18N" http://www.debian.org/doc/manuals/intro-i18n/ -- Linux-UTF8: i18n of Linux on all levels Archive: http://mail.nl.linux.org/linux-utf8/
