If anyone knows could they please reply to me directly at afaber@msn.com
I am wondering about a way to support a language that Microsoft does not have
an NLS file for. Are there tools to build your own, or has anyone done it?
Are there consulting companies that do this? I have constructed a font with
extra characters over the 256 level and have the Unicode table, but would now
like to tie this into the operating system in some way (Win95)
Thanks
Andrew

The Language Kit developed by Apple let ANY application display
those language, not just one single apps.
It also include IME, and let you have display those language in
Menu/Listbox/Combox TextEdit field if you put those text into those
places...
Definitely the definitation of "Language Packs" from Apple and Microsoft
are differents. In the Windows Language Pack, it just
NLS file (which let you convert Unicode and have some locale info)
and Fonts....
