Since Mozilla has its own conversion table. It need to support HKSCS or GCCS
ver.2 which enable Hongkong char to display properly. It is widely used in
government and many Hongkong local site.
Please add this to mozilla. Thx..

ie_hsc@engsvr.ust.hk- can you add it to mozilla ?
I am not sure HKSCS is a widely accept spec yet. Mark it M20 and wait for
developer from the net to add it for mozilla.
Which application support HKSCS as today ?

As of application support, it isnt quite a problem for windows. Since it can
map to user define area of Big5 encoding. It really isnt a solution. For
mozilla, i believe it have it owns mapping table. Making it incompatible. eg.
it will strip off the the range outside standard Big5.

Mark it as moz0.9
this will increase the size of the ucvtw converter dll (about 35 K) . Should we
do this only after we do the converter download on demand work ? should we
package this into a different dll and different xpi file ?

I applied the patches. The size of ucvtw.dll increased from 121k to 165k (debug
build), still smaller than ucvtw2.dll which is 233k.

I found a Microsoft site to enable HKSCS.
http://www.microsoft.com/hk/hkscs/
But its comment is scary, I am not sure if I want to install it.
> This package is intended to be used only by Hong Kong users
> to input and output HKSCS.
> Installing this package may affect private use characters

> Non-HKSCS users are strongly discouraged to install the package.
Anyway, I still have not found pages encoded with HKSCS.

r=ftang. I think we will have problem in the C6XX and F9XX range after this
check in. Due to a limitation in the helper code, the HKSCS characters in C6XX
and F9XX range won't be convert correctly . Please open another bug and assign
to me.
erik- can you sr this one ?

I have asked Gavin (Gavin.Ho@compaq.com) for source files of hkscs.uf and
hkscs.ut, so we can maintain. Also asked where did he get the codepage number 951.

I wanted to verify this on UNIX/Linux environment but it seems that
there was no change in gfx/nsFontMetricsGTK.cpp. Is this correct?
Solaris is going to provide HKSCS locale in next version and want to
use "hkscs-1" fonts, like
-sun-ming-light-r-normal--18-160-75-75-c-160-hkscs-1
and I'm thinking definitions are needed in nsFontMetricsGTK.cpp.
Should I file new bug (or RFE) for this?
