More about SCSU (was: Re: A UTF-8 based News Service)

[DougEwell2]

I should have also mentioned that SCSU is fully supported by the programming 
toolkit ICU (International Components for Unicode), found at:

    http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/

An Open Source project, ICU is available for free and comes with voluminous 
documentation.

SCSU is also registered as an IANA charset, although you are unlikely to find 
raw SCSU text on the Internet, due to its use of control characters (bytes 
below 0x20).

Hope this helps.
