I have a small project for modifying runelocale library for handling the following encodings in LC_CTYPE: iso-2022-jp/cn/kr euc-jp/cn/tw/kr X11 ctext Basically my library is capable of handling any ISO-2022 variant encodings. However, due to the lack of wide-char libraries I have trouble completing it. Could you please send me your wide char libraries if possible? (or could you please merge that to -current tree?) My project includes wide-char curses/regex, but I need some more time for them... >I also have a servicable LC_CTYPE for making Unicode based >locales (using UTF-8 encoding). As far as UTF-8 is one of selections for setrunelocale() mine can coexist with yours, I believe. itojun
