I've been told that the k14 font included has most Chinese characters. 1) The characters in kterm are encoded using something called the Shift-JIS system. Anyone know how to convert Chinese encoding systems (CCDOS, zW) to this. 2) Anyone know of a font editor that works with 16 bit fonts. xfed displays the characters okay, but you need to use mouse clicks to run through the characters, and I'm a bit daunted by the need to click the mouse thousands of times. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Joseph Wang (joe@athena.mit.edu) Wake Up!
