Were you able to inspect the decoded character values? If the decoding is 
right then the issue is with fonts. See isFontAvailable and installFont 
methods in LanguageEnvironment to see how to load language-specific fonts on 
startup. GreekEnvironment and JapaneseEnvironment classes depend on such 
external font files.

What is your locale setting? Inspect:
    Locale current localeID

SimplifiedChineseEnvironment>>supportedLanguages contains 'zh'

Unfortunately not, because of the need for backward compability across 
multiple OSes and platforms. To select the right converter, use class side 
methods in SimplifiedChineseEnvironment. See JapaneseEnvironment for help.

Generally, requests to this mailing list receive brief responses. If you need 
more detail, you could try the beginners mailing list. Squeak needs people 
like to you to increase support for Chinese locales.
