I disagree. Well, if we lived in an idealistic world, perhaps. However, and especially when it comes to PuTTY, I think it is rather important to have CP-1256 support at some point.
well, the code i sent works on converting Unicode to CP-1256 in order to give it to the Display function only... my code does nothing to any encoding handling... only when its arabic unicode it translates and sends to the display function, the rest is in unicode....
