Simplified Chinese support

  Hello,

  I finally got around to start the Chinese support.  Kelvin Chang
informed me (5 months ago, actually) the bitmap fonts for Simplified
Chinese and I hacked the Squeak code a little to support it.  I spent
two hours or so and this is where I am.

  The metric for some punctuation characters doesn't look
right... That is the way the metric is specified for these characters.
I wonder if I should hand-modify them or not...

  I'll look into the text input as well and hopefully have something
testable by the weekend.

  More to come, and I'll ask some help for the test.

It’s amazing how old a message can be and still get revived; this one jumps from may ’06 to last Friday ;-)

Given that the files are fairly old, there may be some work needed to accommodate the changes to the scanners and compositors that nice & I made a little while back. We tried hard to keep it all compatible but I never saw any news of anyone trying out non-latin type languages.

The best packed information most resembles random noise.

We have non-latin working in Etoys for Japanese and a few others (on all platforms), and for pretty much everything via Pango (on Linux only).
