This is the lastest version of cxterm (version 5.0). Most significant improvement from the previous versions: - new Chinese input model (post-processing based on glossary list). Some highlight: - one single package includes cxterm and fonts; easy installation. - one package works for X11R4, X11R5, and X11R6. - based on X11R6 xterm so this one should work for later OS like DEC OSF/1 V3.0, SGI IRIX 5.2, Sun Solaris 2.3, Linux, etc. Other notable changes: - additional ways to switch input method -- by popup config panel. - produce an environment variable "CHAR_ENCODE". - "hzimpath" has been replaced by "hzimctrl". - new .tit constructs. - versioning (used to name after X11 release, now it is not). old version name changed to new version name date released cxterm-11.4.1 1 4/91 -11.4.2, -11.5.1 2.0, 2.1 10/91 3.x (hkust versions) never cxterm-X11R6 4 6/94 5.0 (this one) 1/95 - COPYRIGHT statement, not for commercial use.
