Subject: How to map /dev/vcsa charactel values to unicode code points
Date: Sun, 11 Dec 2011 13:06:12 +0200 (EET)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <alpine.DEB.2.00.1112111251140.2146@tykki> (raw)

Hi

Sorry for cross-posting.

I'm looking or way to map  numerical presentation used in the /dev/vcsa to 
present  each character (8 or 9 bit integer) to  respective unicode code 
points. With  US ASCII this is quite straighforward but with with accented 
letters and  graphics make a mess.

I have tried to read this table  with GIO_UNISCRNMAP and GIO_UNIMAP ioctls 
but i got only most of the characters converted right, not all of them.

Any tips wellcome.
