No, you can't get rid of the charsets, even if you re-map them, but don't worry about it. Would you please explain why we can't get rid of those charsets even after we have unified them into Unicode? I would like to understand this. > Dave, is it now clear what to do? I don't know what you think I was unclear about. It is not clear what to do for some things, but that's not because I don't basically understand the implementation. That is very abstract. I am trying to help solve concrete issues. What is the concrete point on which you are not sure what to do?
