Unicoders, Java programers, Hello
I wich changed the local language (from my keyBoard) under my java
application.
I know now how to dislpay all the characteres of Unicode in my JTextField,
but now I want to be able to ENTER some characteres in my JEditoPane (like
greek, russian). I can do thi

I don't think there was any suggestion that the logical order would differ:
AFAIK, only the display varies.

I have heard the same thing, and think it is underscores a point that MANY
companies forget: not all dialects of Arabic are the same, despite the fact
that most software packages have *one* Arabic version.

only addresses Unix. I also have to consider W

Yes and yes. There are a number of Asian EBCDIC codepages that follow this

Note that in C, it's essentially just as fast to make character comparisons
with (ch | 0x20) as with ch alone, i.e., if you know ch is in an ASCII range
(0 - 0x7F or 0xE - 0xE007F), you can do a case insensitive compare as
quickly as a case sensitive one. The problem with assuming lower case

How do I look up a han character if I don't know its codepoint? What if all I
have is its shape, or its EUC-JP or Shift-JIS number? There are a couple I

A user's query has been passed on to me, regarding

Exactly what constitutes a phonetic sound, besides being made by a human

I don't know the mentioned API, but it could return 0x00DF or (to
indicate it as an error) 0x. I don't see a problem.

Only if you call "V" the same glyph as "5"
I want the new digits to be:
U+218A DUODECIMAL DIGIT TEN aka TURNED DIGIT TWO

Don't worry; I'll be filling out the form in my best cursive :)
