It's more important to test the trunk, as it will be | released much sooner. | | [If you _want_ to use the unicode branch for some reason though, I do | regularly sync it with the trunk, so general bug reports will probably | still be pretty relevant to the trunk version.] `---- One of the reason I test emacs-unicode-2 is I know you sync it with trunk frequently. I keep my eye on emacs cvs log. In fact from my purpose of using emacs, I dont have special reason to use it. I just wanna test it. I am from China mainland. From my reading, I know emacs-unicode-2 doesnot support CJK very well. At the same time, emacs trunk has very good support of CJK. After my short time test, at least I found there is interesting thing for me to play with. Unicode-2 branch adds chinese-gbk and chinese-18030 charsets. There does exist some articles in some groups where messages are posted in non-gb2312 charsets. Though I can use gb2312 to view them, some characters can not be displayed (coz they are out of scope of gb2312). My experience with unicode-2 branch is too few. But since unicode-2 will be base of next version, I think it's interesting to run it in parallel with trunk version. After all, if you keep shared files (for example files in site-lisp) byte-compiled with trunk version, it's very easy to let them coexist. CG -- 山中何所有 岭上多白云 只可自怡悦 不堪持寄君
