Hi all,
I am wondering if I could make the console display CJK character sets.
From what I've searched, wscons doesn't support Unicode at least in NetBSD,
though I wonder if it is a similar case in OpenBSD.
The documents I process involve major eastern Asian characters, some of which
appear in one document. I know I could handle it well enough with proper locale
setting, fonts, and X. But I frankly don't like X and prefer non-X applications,
as most of my work done in CLI or TUI, exactly, emacs-nox11. I guess this could
not be circumvented by simple setting Lang, LC_CTYPE or alike.
Some one patched wscons to uwscons workaround in NetBSD to provide some wide
character functions (unfortunately the link to which was obsolete). I am
wondering if I could patch wscons to meet my own need in terms of i,e, proper
displaying CJK filenames in various file systems (MSDOS,FFS,NTFS, etc.). I would
appreciate any hints.
Regards,
