Journal Journal: A unicode rant
Temperature: 28.6 degrees: Cloud cover 80%
I haven't been doing much.
Why write when there is nothing to write? I expect
Browsing Wikipedia I found a couple of sites that had Chinese text on them. I could read them. So I looked at zh.wikipedia.org, and got Latin characters. It seems that only part of it uses Unicode. Why can't they all use Unicode?
The default language setting on my browser is UTF-16. Asia Yahoo notes in Afrikaans ( Or did I do that on Google? I havne't bothered to change that setting), the browser commands in Japanese, and the listing in Chinese, Japanese and Korean. All display perfectly well.
So why can't these other places at least use UTF-8, if not UTF-16?
At least I can write my book with Chinese, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, English, and Enochian text on the same page.
