Well, if variable-width encodings are referred to as both DBCS (see, for example, http://czyborra.com/charsets/cjk.html#dbcs) and MBCS, then what term is used to describe a fixed-width encoding of more than 1 byte? Or was the concept not common enough to warrant a name until Unicode? -Doug Ewell Fullerton, California http://users.adelphia.net/~dewell/
