Big5-HKSCS <-> Unicode gconv module



Precompiled binary:
        http://spacehunt.e-fever.dhs.org/BIG5.so

Copy this to /usr/lib/gconv (make sure gconv-modules is installed 1st)

Or if you prefer the source:
        http://spacehunt.e-fever.dhs.org/big5.c.bz2

replace iconvdata/big5.c in the glibc2.1 source with this.

The binary was compiled from the glibc 2.1.2 source; it might
work with older glibc versions, but I'm not sure :p

Together with hklocale.tar.gz, a complete Hong Kong locale environment
is now available for Linux!  The only thing left now is a good Big5/HKSCS
bitmap font (for crxvt etc :p) and a good TrueType font for Netscape,
and we'll be the first OS to fully support HKSCS!  This would be a good
thing to show in LinuxExpo HK next week .. (wahaha am I dreaming? XD)
