54 | <big><big>U</big>TF-8</big> is an ASCII-preserving encoding method for |
55 | <a href="unicode.html">Unicode</a> (ISO 10646), the Universal Character Set |
56 | (UCS). The UCS encodes most of the world's writing systems in a single |
57 | character set, allowing you to mix languages and scripts within a document |
58 | without needing any tricks for switching character sets. This web page is |
59 | encoded directly in UTF-8. |
60 | |
61 | <p> |
62 | |
63 | As shown <a href="glass.html">HERE</a>, |
64 | Columbia University's <a href="k95.html">Kermit 95</a> terminal emulation |
65 | software can display UTF-8 plain text in Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, XP, Vista, |
66 | or Windows 7/8/10 when using a monospace Unicode font like <a |
67 | href="http://www.monotype.com">Andale Mono WT J</a> or <a |
68 | href="http://www.evertype.com/emono/">Everson Mono Terminal</a>, or the lesser |
69 | populated Courier New, Lucida Console, or Andale Mono. <a |
70 | href="ckermit.html">C-Kermit</a> can handle it too, |
71 | <a href="http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html">if you have a Unicode |
72 | display</a>. As many languages as are representable in your font can be seen |
73 | on the screen at the same time. |
74 | |
75 | <p> |
76 | |
77 | This, however, is a Web page, which started out as a kind of stress test for |
78 | UTF-8 support in Web browsers, which was spotty when this page was first |
79 | created in the 1990s but which has become standard in all modern browsers. |
80 | The problem now is mainly the fonts and the browser's (or font's) support |
81 | for the nonzero Unicode planes (as in, e.g., the <a href="#braille">Braille</a> |
82 | and <a href="#gothic">Gothic</a> examples |
83 | below). And to some extent the rendition of combining sequences, |
84 | right-to-left rendition (<a href="#arabic">Arabic</a>, |
85 | <a href="#hebrew">Hebrew</a>), and so |
86 | on. <a href="http://www.alanwood.net/unicode/fonts.html">CLICK HERE</a> for |
87 | a survey of Unicode fonts for Windows. |

91 | The subtitle above shows currency symbols of many lands. If they don't |
92 | appear as blobs, we're off to a good start! (The one on the end is the |
93 | <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Indian_rupee_sign">new Indian Rupee |
94 | sign</a> which won't show up in fonts for a while.) |
