Did you mean to send your reply to the whole list? It's doesn't seem like
you did. Anyway, I'm going to repost to the list since I'm trying to
clarify the issue.

I'm quite sure diacritics and such are covered by UTF-8. After all, Arabic
and Hebrew are. You're concerned about the transition though, if I read you
correctly?

We're sorta committed to UTF-8 as it is. Unless someone shows me a
language more obscure than "Modern Greek (Polytonic) or "Friulian",or the
RTL-ones like Arabic or Hebrew I am not concerned. I'm quite sure they'll
survive any potential shift. In fact I think it can only become better.
Regardless of method.

But that's just my completely unbacked optimism shining through. :)

As always, you're welcome to a second opinion. Anyone?

Oh You're talking about normalisation. I got confused by all the German
links I ran into. Eggs on my face. Let me get back to you on this one.

What I think I forgot to mention, is that I'm trying to replace the
spellchecking and it's a spaghetti-code nightmare.

To be brutally honest, I considered replacing the GUI with WxWidgets
to be portable and all, but only MFC has the "sexiness" expexted by it's
users. Dockable toolbars and tabbed dockable windows etc. You can tell me
all you want that as long as the functionality is the same it won't matter,
but I'm not convinced.

Which makes me kinda curious and worried about the MAC users.

I guess this ones's for me. If you mean whether HUNSPELL supports
Korean or similar, the answer is yes. It even supports Hebrew. An RTL
language. I don't know whether Korean is RTL, but replacing SPELL32.DLL
isn't easy. To say the least....

I apologize if I have overlooked something, but...is there any kind
of
NFC/NFD support in Hunspell currently? If not, it appears that a
spell-checker designed for NFC data will not work if the client app
sends it NFD, and vice versa.

If there is no such support, it might be something that I would
consider adding. It surprises me to think that this is not a
significant need.
