Here is the reference for the article I mentioned.

   Author: Don Hosek (dhosek@ymir, dhosek@jarthur.claremont.edu)
   Title: Design of Oriental Characters with METAFONT
   Journal: TUGboat, Volume 10 (1989), No. 4
   Pages: 499-503

This article is a short report on the author's ongoing project of
designing Metafonts for Chinese characters.  I am hoping that this
project will result in a free or inexpensive outline font.  (For those
who don't know, Metafont is normally the outline font system that is
used with the TeX typesetting system.)

Hosek's article is not very informative, just enough to make me
curious.  I sent e-mail to Hosek asking for more information, but he
did not answer.

Does anyone here on CCNET have more information on this project or
other Chinese outline font projects?

I don't know if this is too old for you or you have had this information,
there is a research paper titled" A Chinese Meta-Font" by John Hobby and
Gu Guoan, published by Standford University (July 1983 Report No.
STAN-CS-83-974).   I haven't had time to read it, but it seems quite
informative and detailed, though I don't know how update this information
is.  It has some examples and subroutines.  In the conclusion of this
paper, it says
  "We have shown how it is possible to use Metafont to design Chinese
Characters, and to obtain many different styles from the same program
just by changing a few parameters.  It is possible to build up
a hierarchcal structure so that most of the work is not too difficult
and the resulting quality can be very high
   ...... Our goal is to provide the groundwork for furthre research."

If any of you read it, can you comment on it?


I don't know much about other Chinese outline font projects, but
I tried the outline fonts that are available with CWIN3.  You can pick
any size or points and it looks great (at one screen resolution, the
bigger the fonts, the better they look).

The message terryk posted earlier on ccnet about Chinese Windows 3.0
contains the following information.

-xiangjun


=======================================================

Outline Font with Hand Tuned and User Defined Bitmaps

CWIN3 is delivered with an outline font technology and a single typeface
 implemented under the Far East common installable font technologies feature.
 The outline font technology will read font formatted with the TrueType font
 file format excluding hint information.  This font technology allows third
 party font vendors to market TrueType formatted font files excluding hints,
 commonly called unhinted TrueType, distributed on diskettes.

The unhinted TrueType font technology, also called the outline font driver,
 allows the user the availability of fully scaleable fonts on both the screen
 and printer.  The font technology allows the user to install additional fonts
 distributed on diskettes with great ease and incorporate the use of these fonts
 in all documents, spreadsheets, and other types of files produced by Windows
 programs.

The outline font driver that access the unhinted TrueType files will also use
 hand tuned and pre-rasterized bitmap font files if they are available for a
 particular point size.  Due to the very small sizes of Chinese characters at 12
 points and below, it may be necessary for some typefaces to include hand tuned
 bitmaps for readability.  As well, if the user has large amounts of disk space
 available, then they may wish to pre-rasterize and store selected point sizes
 of selected typefaces to increase the speed of the font technology by
 eliminating the need to rasterize the outline.

The outline font driver will also work in conjunction with user defined
 characters defined and drawn by the Userfont utility.  The outline font driver
 will access the user defined bitmap font files if the user requests a character
 not in the standard Big-5 code space of 13,053 characters.  If a user defined
 bitmap exists for the character in the typeface requested, then font driver
 will access that bitmap and scale it as necessary to present with the other
 characters of the selected point size and typeface.

This is of mariginal relevance to this group, but I am trying to
collect information on machine readable sinological information.
This would include both classic texts and perhaps other information
such as historical databases, etc.

I will be very gratful for any pointers.

Someone asked about books on Chinese computing a couple months ago,
and I just finished going through the logs since then (I'm new here)
and didn't see any replies.  Here are the names of some.

1.
CMEX Gui1ge2 shuo1ming2 ji2 shi2yong4 (CMEX Specification Explanation
and Usage) (sorry about my poor translation)
June, 1990; ISBN 957-23-0114-4; price NT$320 (approx. $12 US)

CMEX is the Chinese Microcomputer Extended (sic) Foundation, a
group based in Taipei with members including Hewlett Packard, Digital,
ETen, Wang, NEC, Epson, III (Inst. for Information Industry), TCA
(Taipei Computer Association), Acer, 01 Computer, and several other
companies in Taiwan.  The CMEX office is based on the campus of the
Tatung Institute, which is run by the Tatung Co., at 40 Chungshan North
Rd., Sec. 3, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C.  The phone number of CMEX is
886-2-592-5252.

2. CMEX Ruan2ti3 Fa1zhan3 Zhi3yin3 (CMEX Software Development Guide)
(again, my translation)
June, 1990; ISBN 957-23-0115-2; price NT$150 (approx. $6 US)

This book is also published by CMEX.  Both of these books are full of
assembly language examples commented in Chinese.  Many variable names are
descriptive enough that a knowledge of assembly language would compensate
for a weakness in Chinese.  BTW, I think Microsoft is also very much
involved in the specification of CMEX.  Does anyone know more about this?

3. Yi2tian1 Zhong1wen2 Xi1tong3 Ji4shu4 Shou3ce4 (ETen Chinese System
technical handbook) (my translation)
January 1991; ISBN 957-504-019-8; price NT$300 (approx. $11 US)

This is one of a small slew of new books published by the ETen Company.
Most of the other titles in this slew are of less interest; i.e.
a beginner's manual, some books teaching input methods, and a thick
directory of names and addresses of companies in Taiwan developing
software that works with the ETen Chinese system.  Oh, I think there is
also a new book from ETen with character conversion tables, although I
don't think it includes GB -- I'll check into this.

4. An Introduction to Chinese, Japanese, and Korean Computing
by Jack K. T. Huang and Timothy D. Huang; Singapore: World Scientific
Publishing, 1989, xxi+437 pp. (Series in Computer Science, vol. 12)
ISBN 9971-50-664-5; price $78 US :-C

There is a flaming review of this in Computational Linguistics Vol. 16,
no. 4, Dec. 1990, from which the above bibliographic information is
lifted.  Wait! That's vol. 16, no. 4, not no. 14.  Sorry, I'm still
learning how to use this editor.

5. Zhong1wen2 Zi4ma3 (Chinese Character Codes) by Huang Dayi (Timothy
D. Huang, co-author of number 4, above).  Da is "big", that da, and yi
is the yi of yi, er, san.  English title is my translation.
April, 1990; ISBN 957-9064-00-8; price $NT220

This ranting review of twelve(?) character coding schemes (including for
Japanese and Korean) is full of colorful examples in Chinese of the
problems of character coding.  I haven't yet read #4, above, but guess
from the review in Computational Linguistics that this might be the same
book.  Basically a hard-sell for CCCII.  If you can't find it in a big
east asiatic library collection, the one bookstore I know of that stocks
it is Beimen Shucheng (North Gate Book Town), a hole in the wall at
209 Chunghsiao West Rd., Sec. 1, 2nd floor, Taipei, Taiwan, R.O.C.
It includes a fair amount of technical information, i.e. code ranges.

For more sources, some librarians have compiled extensive bibliographies
on Chinese libraries/libraries in China.  I'll post the name of one of
these as soon as I can get a chance to look it up.

What other books are out there?  Has anyone done an English-language
version of a basic ETen manual?

The major conference on Chinese computing would be the one by CLCS (Chinese
language computer society), it meets about every 18 months, the next one is
Aug 13, 91 in Taipei.

CLCS also publishes a journal called Computer Processing of Chinese &
Oriental languages. However the quality is only so-so. A better bet is the
past conference proceeding. Most of the paper are only so-so too, but there
will be a few good paper.

  The new group will be used exclusively for posting of Chinese text.
It will be an open forum with no restriction on topics.

  My initial proposal is to use only the HZ and zW encoding methods for
posting to this group. Our eventual aim is to be able to read the
Chinese text on this group just as conveniently as we read English news.
There have been tools on some platforms that do just that, but they
are far from enough. Hopefully creation of this group will give some
incentive to potential developers of these tools.

  It is likely that either me or someone else will post Hua Xia Wen
Zhai to this group in either zW or hz format. Those of you who have
been receiving the zW version of HXWZ from me please let me know
if you still want me to send them to you. (If I don't hear from you,
then I'll assume that you can get it from a.c.t. and don't need it
from me anymore. Giving the amount of time I spend on e-mails nowadays
it's getting hard for me to relay the stuff in a timely manner.)

    In these files, Internet_Tools_big5.zip consists of all other files.
  This compacted files is packed by pkzip.exe utility. You can just use
  pkunzip to unpack tham. Then use any chinese system which support big5
  code to view them or even print them.

    I am still trying to make a copy of simplfied chinese version
  (GB, used in mainland) for these files, if you see this
  file Internet_Tools_gb.zip, that it! But if not, which means I
  am still doing. If you can wait, just ask somebody to sent you
  a copy of that, maybe they can email those file to you in a
  encoded format.

    If you see any file ended with ".gb" which means simplfied
  characters. Again, if you don't see them, I am still trying on it.
  So far, the newest version of Internet-Tools is updated on 31 July 92
   The following is the content of table in Chinese. It is encoded

He also has a book on the same subject in English, but I don't know
the name of it off hand.  You can write to Mr. Huang at:

     9529 NE Gertz Circle
     Portland, OR  97211, U.S.A.
     Tel: 503-289-9135
     Fax: 503-283-6393

Also, you can check the archives for this list, I think it was in July
I put a list of some books including this up on CCNET-L.

Hope this helps.

hi Hartmut,

you asked for a publication from where to look up the frequency of
Chinese characters: here are some:

- A Dictionary of Chinese Character Information, Farton-Science Press Ltd
  Shanghai, 1346 pp. (han4zi xin1xi zi4dian3) in Chinese. It contains
  some 10.000 characters. The frequency is given for the more important
  characters. For the rarely used characters it is anyway not of much use
  to give a certain frequency. The book should be available from:
    International Sales and Marketing Department
    SCIENCE PRESS
    Beijing
    People's Republic of China

Apple publishes a quarterly magazine called d e v e l o p, all offical
developers recieves the subscription, other people can subscribe to it
for $30 (in the US) annually. The interesting thing about it is that it
comes with a CD-ROM in every issue. In the July issue (#3), the CD-ROM is
supposed to contain the latest international versions of Mac system
software. I have not check it myself because I don't have a CD drive,
but people who took a look told me the both Mainland and Taiwan version
of system software 6.03, the one which is not available even from APDA,
is in there. There is a licensing agreement written in typical lawyerly
fashion which I cannot understand, so I am not sure what you can do with
that.

Anyway the address for the subscription of the magazine is

Professor Richard F. Walters of UC Davis published a paper titled
"Design of a Bitmapped Multilingual Workstation" on IEEE Computer, Vol.23,
No.2,  pp33-41, Feb. 1990.  The paper described input, internal storage
and collation, and display etc. problems in a window environment which
supports multiple character sets (especially Chinese character set).
I found the paper quite informative.

Subject:      For lexical researchers
To: Multiple recipients of list CCNET-L <CCNET-L@UGA>
Status: RO

Greetings everyone.  For anyone involved in some form of lexical
research, the Association for Computational Linguistics has set up a
new consortium for lexical research, the "Consortium for Lexical
Research".  The Computing Research Lab here at NMSU will be the site
for the Consortium, and yours truly (me :-) is one of the CLR team!

Basically, the idea of the CLR is to collect tools, databases,
lexicons, corpora, word lists, etc., to avoid duplication of lexical
research.  We are striving to be as international as possible.

We have arranged things so that some of the tools will be freely
available to anyone, some tools will be freely available to members
only, and some special tools will be available for a price to members.

Tools in the last category are things like proprietary tools,
dictionaries, interfaces, and so on.  Since most of you know I am
interested in computer applications dealing with Chinese, I am
proposing to try and make some Chinese on-line dictionaries available
to members of the CLR.  These dictionaries will probably be available
only to members, and will probably involve fees above and beyond the
cost of membership.

If anyone would like to provide any programs, databases, word lists,
or whatever, free or commercial, please contact me at the
email address below.

If you are interested in being on our mailing list, please send your
request to either:
   mleisher@nmsu.edu or mleisher@nmsu.bitnet
or
   lexical@nmsu.edu or lexical@nmsu.bitnet

If you are interested in looking at any freely available CLR stuff, we
will be making it available by anonymous ftp in the following
directory:

  crl.nmsu.edu:pub/lexical/  [128.123.1.14]

We don't have much at the moment, but I've got some other things I'm
checking out that will go in there soon.

More complete Consortium information will be sent out to the mailing
list within the next few days.

Subject:      Where to get CCBIOS and Chinese WS ?
To: Multiple recipients of list CCNET-L <CCNET-L@UGA>
Status: RO

Hello friends !
I am sorry if this is just noise for you, but I am glad to find
a group where I can hope to get answer.

My brother, Mitja Saje, just finished Chinese-Slovene dictionary.
He got some very old CCBIOS (I guess 1984) and WS 3 while
visiting Hong Kong. PC-AT with HGC card are used.

Now... I know computers, he knows chinese, together we got the
system running. Small utility to print the dictionary
with HP laser printer, based on 24 pixel fonts, was written.
Book is printed,
very nice dictionary indeed. Now he works on Slovene-Chinese dictionary.
[maybe this info is of some help to somebody studying slavic languages]

But I always asked him " Try to get some information on new software from your
friends in China". But, looks like his friends are not PC fans.

I FTPed BXY1, looks nice to me, but I hate learning Mitja EMACS...
Learning WS was already one year task for both of us !
And he use WS for european languages as well.

So, here is the question:

- Where can we get NEW version of CCBIOS/CCDOS and chinese WS, with
  all fonts and HP lj II support, and GOOD docs ?

Is it possible to get this package in China ? Address ?
How about Europe distributor ?

This information is really hard to get in Ljubljana.
I am sorry to disturb such
wide audience, and I hope to get some answer by E-mail to my
address:

   YU3FK@ijs.ac.mail.yu
or
   YU3FK%cathy@yubgef51.bitnet

Thanks a lot !

  .  It is said  that Chinese  character  printing  had not  really  gone  .
  .  through the  "typewriting stage",  given the considerable  number of  .
  .  Taiwanese companies  which manufacture computer  systems in Chinese.  .
  .  The tiresome  and numerous  strokes  ( not to mention  the necessary  .
  .  change of the typewriter carriage) one would have to contend with in  .
  .  typewriting  Chinese  characters  are  reduced  to  a  few  keyboard  .
  .  punches.   Many local  firms are  competing to  further cut  down on  .
  .  these keyboard  strokes closely  approximating  the single  punch on  .
  .  an English keyboard.                                                  .
  .                                                                        .
  .  Kuo Hwa Computer  Co., Ltd.  is one of those companies  whose proven  .
  .  experience in the  development of computer  systems has earned  them  .
  .  the reputation of being a  leader in innovation.                      .
  .                                                                        .
  .  There are presently numerous methods of inputing Chinese characters,  .
  .  such as the  "phonetic-alphabet"  method or that  which makes use of  .
  .  radicals.   There are  at least  20  such  methods.   However,  they  .
  .  require much time and effort, as for instance, one needs to memorize  .
  .  the redicals  in order  to use  the radical  method with  speed  and  .
  .  efficiency.                                                           .
  .                                                                        .
  .  Kuo Hwa makes use  of a hands-on system  which combines  the ease of  .
  .  hand  writing  with  an   easy-to-use  software   to  input  Chinese  .
  .  characters.  Called Big-5 system, this innovation is compatible with  .
  .  any IBM PC/AT 286/386  or similiar hardware systems.   It has a 1 MB  .
  .  memory and  uses MS-DOS 3  or later versions.                         .
  .                                                                        .
  .  The whole system  is equipped  with a writing  board which  can take  .
  .  both English  alphabet and  chinese characters.   Its  pen-reader is  .
  .  light and  easy to  use.   The character  is directly  inputted into  .
  .  the screen.   No special trainning is needed  to use Big-5.   It has  .
  .  a built-in  quick correction method.                                  .
  .                                                                        .
  .  Mr. Robert Chang,  Vice President of  Kuo Hwa says,  "Our system may  .
  .  not be as fast as Tsang Jie (radical input method), but it cuts down  .
  .  input time much faster  than any of the other systems."               .
  .                                                                        .
  .  Founded 20 years ago, Kuo Hwa is presently aiming at a bigger macket  .
  .  share with  their new  product.   "Our main  concern, as  with other  .
  .  companies, is to find more effective ways of marketing our product,"  .
  .  said Mr. Chang.                                                       .

  .  concepts  will  be  particularly  stressed  at  the  show,  Mr. Chen  .
  .  said.   In today's  business computer  environment,  systems must be  .
  .  able to "adapt to" and "cooperate with" other systems, creating easy  .
  .  data links and  the widest scope  of networking  possibilities.  H-P  .

  .  with its "servers" on  all kinds of small and  large computers, even  .
  .  those of widely  varying manufacturers,  and can satisfy  the user's  .
  .  every need.   H-P feels  the satisfied  computer user  seeks  speed,  .
  .  function,  efficiency,  and drawing ablility in  one package system,  .
  .  and  that  the  company's  "Client/Server  System"  satisfies  these  .

  .  In the hardware area, H-P will be promoting "HPPA" and what it calls  .
  .  "precision architecture"  to produce  its fastest  workstation,  the  .
  .  9000/800  series.   H-P  will  also  be  showing  its  UNIX 7000/400  .

___Regular Announce___

If I get time, I will post this periodically, hopefully once a month.
---------------------
         I N T E R N E T - T O O L S

                                   V1.10 update 11/25 92
History: The on-line version of Internet-Tools was released
         in July 1992. The printed version is also available
         NOW!! For infomation call The Third Wave BOOK CO,
         Taipei, Taiwan. Phone 886-2-7136959 Miss Lin

What is Internet:
    This book almost tell you nothing about Internet,
    but try to show you how/where to find the Internet
    resources. As a reader, you don't have to be a computer
    science people, because this book have already take care
    of the background knowledge in computing. So what you
    need now is just "sit in front of computer" and " follow
    those intructions step by step", and you will get what
    you need/want -- If you are also interested in knowing why
    thing are done, you simply read the explainations beside
    those steps. Simple!!

What is Email:  Simple, a mail in electronical format!! No
    envelops, no mail men/wonen....
    This book covers the IBM VM/CMS, DEC VAX/VMS and UNIX
    environment. These are almost ALL the host computer
    based on...

What is Telnet: One host simulates as a terminal of the other
    and log into it.. Or you can simply say a way two
    host connect to each other... a example like, you are
    sitting somewhere in US east coast, you can easily log
    into those host in Taiwan/Hongkong/Singapore whose
    library system are consisting of a lot of Chinese
    infomation.. (Sounds like cool !!)

What is FTP:  One computer hook up to the other and upload/download
     software/tech-report/anything back and forth. Usually,
     the other side are containning a lot of these files
     to allow you to retrieve. This is why the other host
     which serve this purpose is called FTP server
     (or Archive Server)..

What is On-Line message:
     On Internet society, people just sitting in front of
     his/her own computer and talk to another one no matter
     where another one is. This "talk" can be one-to-one or
     multi-to-multi, all up to you. The case in BITNET
     is pretty similar to this, but this book so far doesn't
     introduce so much. But it, by the way, tells you many
     and many about BITNET mailing lists, such as CCNET-L
     and the like.

What's more:

      This book, currently, can be considered one of the
      best documents/books which introduces Taiwan Internet
      , or say internetworking in Taiwan. It directly points
      to you much infomation regarding this (althogh this
      part seems to be out-of-date bacause the net society
      or net application in Taiwan simply grows too fast)
      It also indirectly points to other documents which
      probably best describes the Taiwan Internet/BITNET.

      More infomation will be incorporated into it, such as
      the ready-to-reference Current Usenet Report
      (which is currtly published contiguously by UNIXWorld,
       Chinese version, from Feb - April 1993)

      One of the best doc for NCSA Telnet/Ftp is also here.


What's what's what's more and more...
       Checking it out by yourself is the best way ...



~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
                What is Internet-Tools:
((((((((((((((((((((             )))))))))))))))))))))))))))
     Internet-Tools is series of articles containning mostly
     the infomation mentioned above-- most networking stuffs.

     Internet-Tools is written in Chinese and for you, Chinese.
     No matter you are from China, Hongkong or Taiwan.
     These articles comprise of both the traditional characters
     set and simplified one. More details are: those files
     ending wigh .big are traditional, similarly, .gb are
     simplified.


Who contributes this great works:

 So far,
          Wu Jye      jye@twnas886.bitnet
          Erik Wang   u7911093@cc.cntu.edu.tw

How & where to retrieve Internet-Tools
    Anyway, Please Please try to access the site which is closest

    Yes, you can also choose to access to gopher.ccu.edu.tw
   (140.123.1.2) by using either "gopher" client program or
   "telnet". This gopher server provides you with on-line reading

   authors thank those who make this possible.

Dear Friends and Netters:

The following is a detailed announcement for a new publication which

--  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --  --

"Multilingual Computing" (ISSN 1065-7657) is a new magazine and buyers
guide. Published quarterly, it is a combined effort of three publications
previously published under the titles of "SESAME Bulletin" (ISSN 0950-2025),
"Multilingual PC Directory" (ISBN 1-873091-01-X), and the "Worldwide

long been fragmented and disjunct. Targeted for end users and software
developers, the magazine presents the industry with current issues,
trends, technology, and players. Multilingual computing as an industry
is given validity, strength, and full recognition.

With a total of 144 pages, the magazine provides 40 pages of editorial
and 104 pages for an extensive buyers guide. The editorial includes
regular departments on Machine Translation, Localization and Human
Translation, Standards, Distribution, Product Watch, Industry Outlook,
Computer Assisted Language Learning, a rotating Language specific
focus, and special features.

The latest issue, Volume 4 Issue 1, features Japanese computing with
articles on the following: Mangajin Magazine, KanjiLink Newsletter,

listings are cross platform including MS/DOS, Windows, UNIX,
Macintosh, Tandy, IBM RS/6000, OS/2, NT, NeXT, DOS/V, AX VGA/S,

One journal I find useful, even if badly printed, is a Hong Kong journal
called Xiandai diannao, published by Golden Tripod. It deals with Chinese
computing from HK, Mainland, Taiwan and Singapore. Articles seem more to
be information given by vendors, and there's not much comparison etc., but it
is very useful to keep up to date. It also has a lot on input systems etc.,
but the general spirit of the magazine is for sellers, not users. But it's
the only thing there is!
I pay something like $45-$50 to have it sent from HK. Tell me if you need
more info.

Recently I sent a CALL FOR ARTICLES and SUBMISSION OF PRODUCT LISTINGS for
"Multilingual Computing Magazine". My apologies for there were two errors in
the information that I sent. The publisher's phone number is 208-263-8178 (NOT
208-263-1473). The Subscription office is 208-266-1473 and the Fax number is
208-263-6310 (NOT 208-266-6310).

I know this has caused some frustration for people and hope this will correct
the confusion. Also I wanted to clarify who I am.

The response has been very positive so far as people are letting me know how
useful the magazine is to them. I spent 6 years doing product research and know
how really difficult it has been to find some of the multilingual computing
products. This is where I hope to offer help by publishing this info.

So if anyone is looking for any multilingual product for any platform feel free
to contact me and I'll offer whatever I know. Also I am interested in talking
about current issues for this industry. There are so many things that I do not
know and find it difficult to keep up on. I have found so many other very
knowledgeable people also interested in sharing what they know. This is great.

    Yep, possible!  Thing is very easy to understand, see the following.

>>But, there is no way to send and receive Big-5 which is not first uuencoded...
    No,  you don't need to bother to encode/decode for this.

Those Gopher, On-line library, BBS in Taiwan which support big5 coding,
is really providing Chinese on-line service. This simply means you connect to
these servers, then you can possibly choose Chinese interface, then everything
shown on your screen is Chinese over the net.

    Now some tech issues (not very deep) follows:
Due to some stupid reasons, many hosts (IBM, DEC and any of UNIX)
didn't support the so called "8-bit clean" environments. So if you
are a user under these hosts, you need to talk to your local academic
computing service or whatever about if this possibly being changed.
Otherwise even your PC itself is already loading any of chinese
interface softwares such as ETen which supports big5 coding, those
chinese characters from those server over the net will not be able
to display on your screen.
(Please ignore the following details:
big5 coding uses every bit out of a byte (byte=8bit), but for those
didn't support 8-bit machine, every 8th bit is cuted, then your
ETen is not able to interpret those coding to the chinese fonts on-line
you then can't regonize though, unfortunately.)


    Let me summarize to a virtual picture:

    YOUR-PC   -----> YOUR_HOST_AT_SHOOL   ---> ChineseGopher_in_Taiwan

   (chinese-capable)   (should be 8-bit         (chinese-capable)
                            clean at leat)

     Some more positive hints follows:
Here if we skip over the intermediate host, then the problem is
possibly solved right?   Yes, you got it!


     YourPC-at-campus ---------------------------------> Taiwan/HK/SG


     If you have a PC on the net (not via phone line), you are possibly
connecting your PC directly to those libraries, archie server, gopher..
over the net (via the link US <-> Taiwan) and use the language you are
most familiar with. So you just need 2 things:

        1. ETen and the like which supports big5
        2. NCSA telnet chinese version (obtainable from
           moers2.edu.tw /chinese-pub/ncsa ...(I can't asure at the moment)

     For setting up a NCSA telnet, you probably need to talk to
your local computing support dept. If you want to try yourself,
in chap5-2 of Internet-Tools has a very good instructions about this.
(This is written by Eric Wang u7011093@cc.nctu.edu.tw ). If you are
not familar with ftp, see also the Internet-Tools. If you want to
know where those Chinese libraries/archie/gopher/BBS/Database in Taiwan to
connect to, Internet-Tools is a pretty good choice too. Internet-Tools can
be retrieved via ftp from ifcss.org /china-studies/net-resources/Internet-
Tools.gb and Internet-Tools.README. Or NCTUCCCA.edu.tw /Chinese/Internet-Tools
for big5 version.   Hope this helps.  --yuan

    If you have any further question, try to ask those net experts in
Taiwan directly. To do this, telnet NCTUCCCA.edu.tw  a/c#: twnews
This is a netnews service for overseas Chinese. Of course this server
is carrying Chinese too (those local news in Taiwan is about 66% ? in Chinese),
so if you are familiar with above, you can talk to those Taiwanese
in Chinese. Those tw.wanted, tw.talk newsgroup can be considered a appropriate
place about this, give yourself a try!. (The NCTUCCCA.edu.tw netnews info was
provided by Huang Chi-Shien hch@nctuccca.edu.tw months ago)

I have received many e-mail asking about how to get the Japanase dictionary
that arranged Kanji by Chinese Hanyu Pinyin. So I think I should post this
info about the dictionary to the network for the benefits of those interest.

The dictinary : Su4 Zha2 Ri4 Han4 Ci2 Dian3
                (Rapid Searching Japanese-Chinese Dictionary)
Authors       : Gu4 Yi1 Ming2
                Yi1 Xue2 Yi4
Publisher     : Ji1 Xie4 Gong1 Ye4 Chu1 Ban3 She4 Chu1 Ban3
                (Mechanical Industry Publishing Publication)
Year          : 1992 August in Beijing (1st Printing)
ISBN          : 7-111-00838-3/H25

Local dealer  : The Commercial Press
                (Singapore Branch)
                81 Victoria Street, Singapore 0718.

In fact this dictionary is good for checking the on-doku or kun-doku of
single character based Kanji only. For Kanji "word" pronunciations, may
be Ri4 Yu3 Han4 Zi4 Ci2 Dian3 published by Yu4 Lin2 Chu1 Ban3 She4 is
the ideal one but it is a little bit "old". If I'm not wrong, it was
published somewhere in 1984 or 1986 ! It can really achieve what is
so-called "what you see is what you get" !!

Actually the phonomena of "what you see is what you get" problem in
Kanji, is prevalent between Chinese learners only (I think ! Any comment
on this ??). Why ? Because for a Chinese, when he/she see/found/read a
Kanji, the first thing that will come in mind is the Hanzi (Chinese
character). As a matter of fact, some Kanji are really Hanzi themselves.

Here come the problem. What happen if a person encounter a Kanji and
there are no furigana (the Kana written on top or sometimes below the
Kanji) but he/she knows that it is a Hanzi (derived from Hanzi I mean)
and doesn't know the hatsu-on (Japanese pronunciations) ??
May be a Japanese stroke-based checking method is enough and
satisfactory for most of us. But do all find it easy to check the
hatsu-on of the Kanji using this conventional method ? I met this
difficulty when I was learning Japanese Kanji a few months ago; I know
the Chinese pinyin (Chinese equivalent to Kana !? In future ?) but I
don't know the hatsu-on AND I would like to bypass the Japanese
conventional stroke-based checking. First I tried to use WuBiZiXing
coding method (WuBiZiXing is the coding method devised by Prof. Wong
Yong Ming, for info it's a kind of Hanzi input method using roots ((zi4
gen1)) to enter Hanzi from standard keyboard) to "classify" the Kanji,
(manually !). Why not classify them by Hanyu Pinyin ? I found that some
Kanji is totally "out of shape" from Hanzi. Until recently, "Eureka !"
I found the solution ! The Rapid Searching Japanese-Chinese Dictionary,
the answer. And now I can achieve "what you see is what you get" when
reading Kanji (almost 90% ! Since "irregularities" of Kanji word
hatsu-on are so common) whenever I know the Chinese Hanyu Pinyin
equivalence and of course if you don't know the pinyin, back you are to
the conventional checking method.

Or somebody out there have any better way ? Please let the netters know
as well and make the learning fun.

I just read a book (in Chinese) by Dr. Lu Sui-xian, a professor at the Physics
Department, University of Melbourne, Australia.  Under the title of The
Scientific Research of Hanzi (han zi de ke xue yan jiu), this book is in fact
on the character reform and computing.

Deeply impressed by Dr. Lu's insights, I like to contact him for discussion.
If anyone in this net is able to get his email or postal address, please let
me know by personal email.

Thanks in advance.

"Understanding Japanese Information Processing"
by Ken Lunde
Published by O'Reilly and Associates, Inc.

ISBN 1-56592-043-0

About this Book:

There are many complex issues surrounding the use of the Japanese
language in computing. Unlike English, which has 26 letters in a
single alphabet, Japanese has thousands of characters in three
scripts. The issues around handling such an unwieldy collection
of data are formidable and complex. Up to now, researching and
understanding the relevant issues has been a difficult, if not
unattainable task, especially to a person who doesn't read or
speak Japanese.

"Understanding Japanese Information Processing" is a book that
provides detailed information on all aspects of handling Japanese
text on computer systems. It tries to bring all of the relevant
information together in a single book. It covers everything from the
origins of modern-day Japanese to the latest information on specific
emerging computer encoding standards.

Here is a sampling of the topics covered:

- The Japanese writing system
- Japanese character set standards
- Japanese encoding methods
- Japanese input
- Japanese output
- Japanese code conversion techniques
- Japanese code and text processing tools
- Japanese e-mail

In addition, there are over 15 appendices which provide additional
reference material, such as a code conversion table, character set
tables, mapping tables, an extensive list of software sources, a
glossary, and much more.

Ken Lunde is the Project Manager for Japanese Font Production at Adobe
Systems, Inc., a leading manufacturer of computer-based font
technologies. The author also created and maintains an on-line
document entitled JAPAN.INF, which has become an invaluable resource
for people trying to understand the issues involved in dealing with
Japanese text. The book expands on the topics covered in JAPAN.INF,
and contains a rich complement of figures, tables, and lists
unavailable in the on-line document.

Both O'Reilly & Associates and the author are excited about the
publication of this book because it fills a large void for
information about the Japanese language for English-language readers.
This book is able to both describe the Japanese language
generally and cover very detailed specifics about implementing the
language on computers. Even a person with only a casual
interest in languages will find the book engaging. A programmer
interested in writing a computer program which will handle the
Japanese language will find the book indispensable.

Hi!

My name is Bill Griswold.  A colleague passed along the following excerpt that
he got from somewhere.  Your address was with it, so I figured I'd write to you
with some news on Chinese for Mac.

************ EXCERPT ********************
NOW........... what news on Macintosh worldscript????  I have just
got the old 6.0.3 Chinese traditional system but the whole thing seems to
be three years out of date and though it is useful, it is very annoying
to have to use system 6.  Perhaps I bought the software from the wrong
place but it looks to me as though nothing has happened since 1990.

I have just got Nisus 3.4, which is supposed to work with the
forthcoming Chinese extension, but there are great problems and conflicts
already even before Apple come up with the gooods and nobody seems to know
what is happening.
*****************************************

Well, the news is that Apple is planning to release, during the third quarter
of this year, their Chinese WorldScript module (which they'll be calling the
'Chinese Language Kit') which will handle both the simplified & traditional
Chinese.  Apple is not having any problems or conflicts with it as far as I
know.

My job is to stay on top of what multilingual solutions exist for Mac.
Obviously, WorldScript and QuickDraw GX are of great interest to me.  I first
saw QD GX a year ago and have been impressed with the alpha & beta versions
we've been working with.  It ought to help us out with non-English language
processing quite a bit.

There are a couple of resources you should be aware of:

y JAARS, Inc. (part of the Summer Institute of Linguistics) has a newsletter
for folks doing language/linguistic work on their Macs.  It is called Notes On
Apple Macintosh.  NOAM is a quarterly journal available from:

    NOAM
    Box 248
    Waxhaw, NC 28173
    (704) 843-6156

y There is a magazine called Multiligual Computing.  It is a REALLY great
magazine/buyers guide for all types of language products.  You can get more
info by contacting them their Internet address:

Thanks for your interest in Multilingual Computing Magazine. I am sorry but we
are not an internet list nor electronically distributed. The publication is
printed and is available through paid subscription only. Follows is a
description of the publications. Let me know if I can help you further.

Multilingual Computing Magazine
 
ANNOUNCEMENT FOR MAGAZINE  MULTILINGUAL COMPUTING
 
Multilingual Computing (ISSN 1065-7657) is a magazine and buyer's guide. Since
its introduction it has become the leading industry publication and by far
contains the most extensive and up-to-date listing of related products in the
buyer's guide section. Previously published under the titles of the Worldwide
Language Guide and SESAME Bulletin the magazine took on major changes and a new
title for its 1993 introduction, Multilingual Computing.
 
The publication now brings together an industry that has long been fragmented
and disjunct. Targeted for end users and software developers, the magazine
presents the industry with current issues, trends, technology, and players.
Multilingual computing as an industry is given validity, strength, and full
recognition.
 
With a total of 144 pages, the magazine provides 40 pages of editorial and 104
pages for an extensive Buyer's guide. The editorial includes regular
departments on Machine Assisted Translation, Localizations, Standards,
Electronic Communication, Product Distribution and Availability, New and
Updated Product Watch, Industry Outlook and Changes, Computer Assisted Language
Learning, Hardware, a rotating Language specific focus, and special feature
articles.
 
Volume 4 Issue 1, published for the second Quarter of 1993, features Japanese
computing with articles on the following: Mangajin Magazine, KanjiLink
Newsletter, WordPerfect for Japanese, Qualitas Trading for Japanese Software,
Computing in Japanese, Developing for Japanese, KanjiTalk and Apple Macintosh.
Other articles in the current issue include Unicode/ISO 10646, Computer Aided
Instruction, Naming Software for International Distribution, Font Standards,
Korean Processing, LexiTRANS Machine Translation, WorldScript, and a variety of
Industry and Product News.
 
The Buyer's Guide portion of the magazine lists multilingual computing related
products. This section is very extensive and thorough. It is the result of 6
years worth of research in the US, Pacific Rim, and Europe. More than 1200
listings are published throughout the year. The listings are cross platform
including MS/DOS, Windows, UNIX, Macintosh, Tandy, IBM RS/6000, OS/2, NT, NeXT,
DOS/V, AX VGA/S, Hand held systems, and others. The current issue lists 491 of
the 1200 total listings. As this issue featured Japanese Computing, 136 of
these listings support Japanese. Categories for listings include Computer
Equipment, Development, Educational, Fonts and System Software, General
Applications, Machine Translation, Optical Character Recognition, Publications,
Services, Writing and Publishing.
 
Listings for over 300 languages are represented in the Buyer's Guide organized
by Scripts as defined by the Unicode consortium. These scripts are American
Non-Roman Phonetic, Amharic, Arabic, Armenian, Cyrillic, Far Eastern, Georgian,
Greek, Hebrew, Maldavian, North Indian and Tibetan, Roman, South East Asian,
and South Indian and Sri Lankan.
 
SUBSCRIPTIONS: "Multilingual Computing" is available on a subscription basis.
The cost is $40 for US. Requests for subscription can be sent to the publisher,
Seth Schneider, at CompuServe at 71224,1003 or 71224.1003@compuserve.com with
name, address, phone, Visa / MasterCard / American Express number and
expiration date. Or contact the address and phone/fax number below. First
copies are sent in 7-10 days. Back issues for SESAME Bulletin and the Worldwide
Language Guide are available but the new title, Multilingual Computing, really
contains the latest information and the combined material from both previous
publications.
 
PRODUCT LISTINGS: Product and service listings in the Buyer's Guide section are
accepted without charge and are encouraged. This is to promote the receipt of
information such that this section continues to provide the most extensive and
current listings available. Screen shots, graphics, and samples can be included
for a nominal charge. Contact the office closest to you for a Vendor Kit with
listings forms and requirements.

I have just received my copy of _JASIS_, vol. 44, no. 9 and saw the
following article contained in it.

   Wu, Zimin, and Gwyneth Tseng.  "Chinese Text Segmentization for
      Text Retrieval:  Achievements and Problems."  _JASIS_ 44 (9):
      532-542 (October 1993)

This article reviews literature on Chinese text segmentization and
discusses problems invovled in such an approach to Chinese information
processing.  I thought that this might be of some interest to Eastlib
subscribers.

My opinion (I didn't like it, and don't think it was ever up to date):

The words "Japanese and Korean" in the title are in lighter type, but
"An Introduction to Chinese Computing in Taiwan" would be more honest.
There is little useful information on Japanese computing and none on
Korean -- not a problem for CCNETters, but Chinese computing doesn't do
much better.  The chapter on input methods is a somewhat informative
introduction, though dated.  The only thing in the whole book I found
useful was the sketch of CCCII.

This book is stuffed with chauvinism and ignorance.  For example,
the GB standard is blasted for having the having the same structure as
JIS, and for having kana but not codes for the radicals (but it does).
That's about it for mainland Chinese computing, except for various
condemnations of pinyin.  The designers of Big-5 are compared to the
"Wu3 Hu2" among other abuse, while the designers of CCCII (guess who)
are described as benefactors of mankind in general and Chinese culture
in particular.

The chapter on Chinese programming languages is by the junior author.
It begins by blasting mere translations of existing programming languages,
saying that what is required are new languages reflecting the unique
Chinese way of thinking and taking advantage of the thousands of iconic
Chinese characters.  He then holds up Forth as a language close to
Chinese philosophy and culture, and shows us Chinese-Forth: Forth with
identifiers in Bopomofo.

Try Zheng Maosong's "Zhongwen ruanjian yu ruanjian Hanhua", Beijing: Dianzi
gongye chubanshe, 1992. It is not exactly a one-by-one step guide to do
Chinese programming, but comes close to what you need.

This is very true.  Probably over ninety percent of these are tutorials
for some various input method--everyone wants to get a piece of this
pie, so there are a slew of books on each method.  Further, many of
the books you mentioned such as "How to run 1-2-3 in Chinese" are
classified (by the bookstores) under "Chinese Computing," so a quick
browse by the Chinese Computing section of the bookstore could be
misleading--a whole shelf full of books looks impressive, but there
are really very few, as you put it, serious books on programming.
In case anyone thinks: "if they need a whole book to explain how to
run Chinese, then the system is flawed," I'll point out that such
books are invariably tutorials on the particular software (1-2-3) in
the title.

I think I mentioned this before on CCNET-L, but it was a long time
ago:

"ETen Zhongwen C yuyan chengshi jiemianguan" [ETen Chinese C
Language Programming Interface], ETen Information System Co., Ltd.

This is a library of functions for Chinese text and screen handling.
The small book comes with a diskette containing .LIB files for
linking into DOS programs (MSC and Turbo C) and source code samples
for each function in the library.  Functions include putting
characters on the screen, moving to positions on the screen, sizing
characters, changing graphic resolution, detecting presence of
Chinese system, detecting version of Chinese system, detecting and
changing current input method, getting the key presses necessary
to input any given character under any supported input method,
changing between 16x16 and 24x24 mode (vector fonts are not
supported), converting between various character coding systems
used in Taiwan (GB is not supported), and others.

Here's an example of a function, from one of the provided header
files:

/* write string at the position with attribute, cursor is moved
     etWrtStr (type, row, col, str,   attr);              */
void etWrtStr (int,  int, int, char *, int);

The address ETen gives for Malaysia is:

  56-B, 2nd Flr., Jalan Sultan Ismail
  50250 Kuala Lumpur
  Malaysia
  Tel: 3-242-4236
  Fax: 3-241-1557

Another source for ETen software and books is:

  Chase Computers
  210 E. Main St.
  Alhambra, CA  91801  USA
  Tel: (818) 300-8666
  Fax: (818) 300-8693

Although the above only supports 16x16 and 24x24, ETen did come
out with an outline font product in 1990, and it has been three
years so it is possible that in the intervening period they
have had a chance to update this library (originally published
in 1989 or 1990, I believe) to incorporate outline font handling
capability.

ETen and the other companies providing Chinese system software in
Taiwan also publish technical reference books, such as the "ETen
Zhongwen Xitong Jishushouce."  However these are mainly geared to
assembly language programmers.

I have no current or past connection with ETen other than as a
customer.

Then there's also MS-Windows Chinese edition, with its Far
Eastern SDK.

There is a book on Assembly Language Programming for 80286
by Hung from Taiwan. It is well-written and provides so much details
which cannot be found in any English counterparts. I bought the book
in California, and never found it in any East coast book store from NY to
FL. There is a different channel of book distribution even in US between
east and west coasts.

I recommend a starting place of Ken Lunde's 'Understanding Japanese
Information Processing,' published this Fall by O'Reilly- it provides a
thorough background in the composition and organization of JIS X
0208-1990 and JIS X 0212-1990, as well as their relation to GB 2312-80
and the Korean standard- as well as their juxtapostion with Big5 and a
variety of Corporate Japanese standards.  He also provides numerous ftp
soruces for other files and documents which will make much more sense
when you have read his book.

In particular, this book makes it pleasurable and easy for someone
familiar with Chinese encoding and character, character set organization
to search for and understand the organization of JIS character sets-
without having to have an in-depth knowledge of Japanese.

Best Regards,
Susan Lasovick

The December-1993/January-1994 issue of _ASIS Bulletin_ lists the
following monograph, which I thought might be of some interest to
some Eastlib subscribers:

   Arnold, Stephen E.  _Investing in an Information Infrastructure:
      An Overview of Japan's Network Services_.  Calne, Wiltshire,
      England:  Infonortics, 1993?              (ISBN 1873699069)

Apparently, this is by the same author from the same publisher as
another book:

   Arnold, Stephen E.  _The Information Factory:  A Profile of
      Japan's Information and Database Infrastructure_.  Calne,
      Wiltshire, England:  Infonortics, 1991.

The ISSN is 1065-7657.

Some members may recall that the excellent Sesame Bulletin ceased 
publication a year or two ago, and referred its subscribers to the new 
Multilingual Computing. It was hoped that one journal would fill the 
need better than two.

Since then, it has become apparent that the two publications are quite 
different. Multilingual Computing is heavy on product reviews; Sesame 
Bulletin carried articles on topics of multilingual computing, some 
theoretical, some technical, a few product-specific, but most 
cross-product in coverage.

Because of dissatisfaction with the lack of the latter type of 
coverage, Sesame Bulletin has resumed publication. Every library 
attempting to support this area should have a subscription to Sesame, 
though individuals may find it a bit pricey (around US$50, as I 
recall).  ISSN is 0950-2025. The address

Worldwide: The Development of Character Set Standards*, 1988, 
ISBN 1-870095-01-4 --still the best single volume coverage of the 
subject)

Hi, here are something about Chinese DTP programs on PC:
        1. BeiDaFangZheng , a DTP system (running on Windows, I think)
developed by Beijing Univ for professional use. It has a plenty of fonts,
and is said to be used by several major newpaper agency in China. There is
a official dealer in Japan, so there maybe one in U.S. too.  The output of
it is really beautiful, and it is Expensive!
        2. Aldus Pagemaker for Windows. Although it does not formally
support Chinese, it deserves to have a test. I have been using PageMaker
for Mac ( Japanese Version, does not formally support Chinese too) for
years  and it works very good.

If you are using a Macintosh, you can have Chinese version of PageMaker or
Quark Xpress.  I have no idea about is there any Chinese version of these
softwares on Windows.

By the way, does anyone know where can I find a truetype PinYin font ?

Hi netters,

Since several persons are interested in the names of the strokes
composing chinese characters, I post it on the list.

You can find them, for e.g., in a small book called:
"chinese characters, unsimplified, simplified plus pinyin
romanization" published by Foreign Languages Press,
24 Baiwanzhuang Road, Beijing, China;
distributed by the China International Book Trading Corporation
(Guoji Shudian), P.O.Box 399, Beijing, China.

This book gives you a table of simplified and unsimplified
characters, the chinese phonetic alphabet, the names of strokes
composing characters and the names of radicals in characters.

I have no link whatever with the publishing company.
It's just a book I bought in a bookshop that I recommend
to people interested in chinese characters.

For those who cannot get the book, since the names of the strokes
take only one page, I give below these names :

stroke                                  name pinyin             name in character
                                                                (BIG5 encoding)

I hope the BIG5 encoding gets through the mail...

I just had a small problem for the gou1 character. The one printed in the
book (and in my dictionnary) is not in my big5 font. :-(
(taipeik24, i.e. taipei kai3shu1)
The one I finally took
looks the same except that it has a 'mouth' instead of a
'pie3zhe2 with dian3' as in the bottom part of the 'qu4' (to go) character.
Does anyone know if it's a variant of the gou1 character or if it's
a mistake in the font?

Thanks

Hi netters,

Since several persons are interested in the names of the strokes
composing chinese characters, I post it on the list.

You can find them, for e.g., in a small book called:
"chinese characters, unsimplified, simplified plus pinyin
romanization" published by Foreign Languages Press,
24 Baiwanzhuang Road, Beijing, China;
distributed by the China International Book Trading Corporation
(Guoji Shudian), P.O.Box 399, Beijing, China.

This book gives you a table of simplified and unsimplified
characters, the chinese phonetic alphabet, the names of strokes
composing characters and the names of radicals in characters.

I have no link whatever with the publishing company.
It's just a book I bought in a bookshop that I recommend
to people interested in chinese characters.

For those who cannot get the book, since the names of the strokes
take only one page, I give below these names :

stroke                                  name pinyin             name in character
                                                                (BIG5 encoding)

Hi,

I would like to do a survey on the topic.  Till now, I'm only aware
of the two publications:

Yang, D-Y., and Fu, L-W., (1992),
An Intelligent Conversion System between Mainland Chinese
Text Files and Taiwan Chinese Text Files,
Jounal of Chinese Information Processing, Vol. 6, No. 2., 26-34.

Lee, C-J., Shyu, K-H., Huang E-F., and Jeng B-S., (1994),
A Text Conversion System Between Simplified and Complex
Chinese Characters Based on OCR Approaches,
Proceedings of ROCLING-VII, 187-197.

Do you have any additions to the list and/or any other related information?
I'll post a summanry if I got enough response.  Thanks.

GuoJin
