How can you put the set of bits meaning one character "in" the set of bits meaning another character? One must come first!
This game I was playing had "handwriting order". To input the first kana of my name "juuitchan", I had to type shi and then dakuten. I don't have my book but with Unicode I put the dakuten and then the shi, right? rarararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararararara Like this: With a brush: shi, THEN dakuten With Unicode decomposed: dakuten, THEN shi With Unicode composed: ji Or your letter: With a pen (NOT a brush! Romaji wrecks brushes; I've tried it): e, THEN circumflex With Unicode decomposed: circumflex, THEN e With Unicode composed: e with circumflex (there is an e with circumflex that is 1 character) The point, Mr. Maheu, is that there are two ways to get what you want. Unicoders, did I say it right? らんま ★じゅういっちゃん★ ×あかね ーーーーー PTKA IZGT F SFNNGYGB ZRMSFTB WM あまんけ NFEGT FM MGYWPRMKA FM F SFNNGYGB IWOG ねけあず IWKK QGT FT IPQGT ZFXG GHRFK YWJZNM. らんま ーーーーー いいなずけ --- Original Message --- 差出人: Pascal Maheu <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; 宛先: "'[EMAIL PROTECTED]'" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>; Cc: 日時: 01/06/14 21:03 件名: First of many newbie questions > >* How does using non-spacing characters like "^" interact with say an >"e" to form a "・?
