Perhaps not everyone uses Java ;-) C/C++ still requires significantly fewer resources, and is more widely used from what I have seen. Java is more portable, and is a big hit in colleges right now, but also requires more resources and a slightly faster processor to achieve the same speed. On the other hand, you are right -- UTF-8 is the way to go :-) -- Chris Umphress <http://daga.dyndns.org/> _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list: sword-devel@crosswire.org http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel Instructions to unsubscribe/change your settings at above page
