I understand from - http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WindowsBestFit/readme.txt
that Windows codepage 932 (IBM CP943) is basically (a superset of) Shift-JIS (JIS X 0208 A1). There are at least 3 related mapping files: - http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WINDOWS/CP932.TXT - http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MICSFT/WindowsBestFit/bestfit932.txt - http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/OBSOLETE/EASTASIA/JIS/SHIFTJIS.TXT I don’t know much about Shift-JIS, so this question may sound stupid: Could and should custom vendor extensions like the ones documented in - http://unicode.org/Public/UCD/latest/ucd/EmojiSources.txt be included in these mappings? Related English Wikipedia articles: - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/JIS_X_0208 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shift_JIS - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_932 - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page_943 ____ Furthermore, are the files in /Public/MAPPINGS/ supposed to be maintained at all as characters get added to subsequent releases of Unicode? For instance, I think that - http://www.unicode.org/Public/MAPPINGS/VENDORS/MISC/SGML.TXT (dated 25 July 1997, last modified 8 April 2002) includes several `????` that could be specified nowadays, e.g.: - epsiv ISOgrk3 0x???? # variant epsilon + epsiv ISOgrk3 0x03F5 # GREEK LUNATE EPSILON SYMBOL
