Keyword aliasing and extended-character display
Hi everybody,
I am working on a semester project at U-Illinois in which we are trying
to implement a Chinese-language programming browser in visualworks.
Some of the things we need to do in getting started are:
* We need to be able to have the compiler accept Chinese versions of the
five keywords (true, false, self, super, nil). We have figured out
how to simulate everything but super and nil...any hints on where we
should look to hack to get visualworks to accept alternate versions of
those two?
* We need to get the environment to display unicode characters. For
some reason, we have only been able to get the Chinese characters to
display on Mac OS X, all other platforms come up as a black square.
Is this some sort of font-instillation problem, or is there a deeper
magic at work?
Thanks very much for your help,
Mike Hunter
