=====================

GB2UTF8 is a test for LesserMail Chinese support.  

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
A few things that I want you to know before you try GB2UTF8.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1.  I've never seen any Chinese e-mail ever, so my implementation may be different from what others actualy do,   and so GB2UTF8 may not work at all.

2.  You need to get a Chinese font.
I have got one from IE4.0 but it doesn't work well with BeOS.  
Let me konw if you know how to get one for free.

3. NetPositive can't disply Chinese text, anyway.
It dosen't take plain UTF8.

4. When you download a web page written in GB via NetPositive and save it on local HD, its data will be broken.
There must have been a way to fix it but I don't konw.

5. I don't understand Chinese language, so please write me in English or Japanes.

Please give me feedbacks, otherwise I have no way to fix GB2UTF8.
BIG5 and ISO-2022-CN for CNS 11643-1992 support will come later, soon. 
...and hopefully Korean support by the end of 1998.
Thanks.
