As far as I can remember, TIS-620 and ISO-8859-11 are not identical: the ISO-8859-11 has non-break-space in 0xA0, while the TIS620 doesn't (where it's undefined). So aliasing wouldn't be correct, we would need to have a completely new table for the ISO-8859-11. -- Jarkko Hietaniemi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.iki.fi/jhi/ "There is this special biologist word we use for 'stable'.
