Hi:
I am trying to implement some character maps for Indic languages (and thus
some locales). Unfortunatly, many of the Indic 8-bit encodings are charcter
based but the corresponding Unicode charcters are based on glphs.
Moral of the story: It is a Many-to-many transformation.
e.g.: the following could be a scenario (not real numbers)
<U0b11><U0b36> : \x93\x95\xa8
<U0b11><U0b36><U0b88> : \x83
How can I implement such a character map. Any kind of pattern matching?
algorithmic?
Thanks.
-Dinesh
