My guess is that it's the language list, but it could be anywhere because of how screwed up Mule has historically been about handling environments. I would start by pruning the list of character sets loaded by default. chinese-sisheng is presumably of mostly historical interest now. Only linguists and Chinese educators could possibly be interested in it, and they presumably would prefer to use Unicode or a Chinese character set that includes hanzi. IPA is another that should go, if it has a non-Unicode encoding. The CNS coding systems are basically unused. Really the only languages that should have multiple non-Unicode coding systems loaded by default are Japanese ("hello, foot, meet my friend bullet") and Russian (KOI8 is a Cold War relic, I guess, but unlike ISO 2022 and EUC the ISO standard is basically not accepted in Cyrillic countries). Ben> stephen, any insights? you're the latin-unity guy. I didn't know anything about chinese-sisheng; latin-unity has nothing to do with that. ... Hm, still doesn't, that's not a latin alphabet, it's a phonetic alphabet for Chinese that happens to include some latin characters. -- Institute of Policy and Planning Sciences http://turnbull.sk.tsukuba.ac.jp University of Tsukuba Tennodai 1-1-1 Tsukuba 305-8573 JAPAN Ask not how you can "do" free software business; ask what your business can "do for" free software.
