Hello, thanks for the answer. So I am looking forward to speak to David Morris (are you on this list?) and Jimmy.
By the way Gautam, even though you may not know anything about utf8 (I must just know a little more anyway for now. But honnestly this is not complicated, just a rule to arrange bytes for storing the unicode mapping), maybe you know the generic functionning of encoding in mrxvt? I don't think that utf8 is more complicated than any other encoding, just that maybe it is longer that all the other already implemented (from what I looked in your code, all your multibyte encoding are at most 2 bytes long apparently whereas utf8 can be "theoritically" up to 6 bytes). This was what I wanted from my previous mail. Just don't consider you know or not utf8, this is an encoding like another. And for my own, what I don't really don't know is how works a terminal. So if you may tell me this, the global terminal's logic, the specific mrxvt design, and the encoding (whichever it is!) management in mrxvt... this would be really helpful. Who has integrated the other encodings' support anyway? Thanks again! Jehan P.S.: by the way, great work for mrxvt as a whole! I haven't say so before, even though I had already sent a mail to thank Jimmy something like 2 years ago (but never to all dev!). :-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------- SF.Net email is sponsored by: The Future of Linux Business White Paper from Novell.
