Please check out my new, Mule-on-Windows, full Unicode support XEmacs!

I'm looking for testers. There is a complete and fast implementation in C of Unicode conversion, translations for almost all of the standardly-defined charsets that load up automatically and instantaneously at runtime, coding systems supporting the common external representations of Unicode [utf-16, ucs-4, utf-8, little-endian versions of utf-16 and ucs-4; utf-7 is sitting there with abort[]s where the coding routines should go, just waiting for somebody to implement], and a nice set of primitives for translating characters<->codepoints and setting the priority lists used to control codepoint->char lookup. It's so far hooked into one place: the Windows IME. Currently I can select the Japanese IME from the thing on my tray pad in the lower right corner of the screen, and type Japanese into XEmacs, and you get Japanese in XEmacs -- regardless of whether you set either your current or global system locale to Japanese,and regardless of whether you set your XEmacs lang env as Japanese. This should work for many other languages, too -- Cyrillic, Chinese either Traditional or Simplified, and many others, but YMMV. There may be some lurking bugs (hardly surprising for something so raw). To get at this, checkout using `ben-mule-21-5', NOT the simpler *`mule-21-5'. For example cvs -d :pserver:xemacs＠cvs.xemacs.org:/usr/CVSroot checkout -r ben-mule-21-5 \ xemacs or you get the idea. the `-r ben-mule-21-5' is important. I keep track of my progress in a file called README.ben-mule-21-5 in the root directory of the source tree. WARNING: Pdump might not work. Will be fixed rsn. ben
