Linux FAQ's & Manuals


further reading and interesting unicode related links

i highly recommend to read markus kuhn's famous ``utf-8 and unicode faq for unix/linux'' pages

http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html

they offer very comprehensive information about unicode on linux.

there is also bruno haible's ``unicode howto'' which is available at

ftp://ftp.ilog.fr/pub/users/haible/utf8/unicode-howto.html

but it is already a bit out of date by now (the last update was in january 2001 and utf-8 support in linux has advanced a lot since then).

another very useful resource is the mailing list <linux-utf8-request@nl.linux.org>. to subscribe send mail to <linux-utf8-request@nl.linux.org> or use the web interface at
