does UTF-8 copy and paste (falling back to normal strings if necessary), it understands X font encodings and translates things accordingly so that if you have a Unicode font you can ask for virtually any single-byte encoding and get it (Mac-Roman pterm, anyone?), and so on. There's work left to be done (wide fonts for CJK spring to mind), but I reckon this is a pretty good start. [originally from svn r2395]

This subdirectory contains a general character-set conversion

library, used in the Unix port of PuTTY, and available for use in
|
|
other ports if it should happen to be useful.
|
|
|
|
I intend to use this same library in other programs at some future
|
|
date. It is therefore a _strong_ design goal that this library
|
|
should remain perfectly general, and not tied to particulars of
|
|
PuTTY. It must not reference any code outside its own subdirectory;
|
|
it should not have PuTTY-specific helper routines added to it unless
|
|
they can be documented in a general manner which might make them
|
|
useful in other circumstances as well.
