Hi tgkuo,
Here is a proof that Unicode is definitively possible in Squeak. I put on a same web page some English, French, Slovenian, Russian and Chinese:

This is done by help of Aida/Web on Squeak 3.9. This image has Unicode patch installed but it would probably work the same on plan 3.9 too.
Best regards Janko

Definitively not, and I just don't understand why Chinese is so slow. I hope you'll be able too look at that code to see, what's wrong. And Chinese is close to Japanese, right? I learned Chinese a bit 20 years ago, but this was not of much help - I forgot too much :)
I'll prepare and publish code and benchmark tomorrow.
Interesting to hear that unicode encoding is possible upon Squeak. But the new VM/Image that I installed and run under Windows XP box showed strange characters for the title and any Chinese characters entered. There is still much conversion done to overcome the anomalies, I think. Maybe someone had more converted and stable image for testing ... :-) .
Best regards. tgkuo
