1 The files in this directory were converted from data in the mule-ucs
2 package (mule-ucs/lisp/reldata/*), using this code:
3
4 (defun convert-mule-ucs-file (start end)
5 (interactive "r")
6 (with-output-to-temp-buffer "*mule-ucs-convert*"
7 (save-excursion
8 (goto-char start)
9 (while (re-search-forward "(\\?\\(.\\) \\. \"\\(.*\\)\") ;+ \\(.*\\)$"
10 end t)
11 (let ((ch (string-to-char (match-string 1)))
12 (codepoint (match-string 2))
13 (name (match-string 3)))
14 (if (= 1 (charset-dimension (char-charset ch)))
15 (princ (format "0x%x %s # %s\n" (char-octet ch) codepoint name))
16 (princ (format "0x%x%x %s # %s\n" (char-octet ch 0) (char-octet ch 1) codepoint name))))))))
17
18 Each file is named after the XEmacs charset it represents. The CNS files
19 contain more codepoints than those in unicode-consortium/ because they list
20 codepoints above 0xFFFF, those handled by surrogates (supported starting in
21 Windows 2000, I think, but not yet by XEmacs).
