Right. Apple solved this in Darwin by calling isrune() on the wide character before returning it from mbrtowc(). I'm considering doing the same thing in FreeBSD, but I'm not sure whether it would break any applications that relied on the old behaviour. If I did that, would it be possible to use the EUC encoding code? Tim
