ISO-2022-INT was basically an extension of ISO-2022-JP-2, with additional Chinese charsets, keeping ASCII, ISO-8859-1 and ISO-8859-7 as the only non-CJK charsets. It also only has KS C 5601 for Korean, so it doesn't include a complete set of Hangul characters. -- David Starner - [EMAIL PROTECTED] "It's not a habit; it's cool; I feel alive.
