[comp.windows.x] Byx Chinese editor and 'zW'

joe@athena.mit.edu (Joseph C Wang) (08/13/89)

After a bit of trouble, I've gotten the freely-redistributable program
kterm to work (it's an X window that displays kanji characters).  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.
