Hi !

In XP (and 2000), the display of unicode use the uniscribe motor.  But the
standards win's versions are not (all) in top level. You MUST install more
recent version.

I had do this update, and, now, I can use really unicode in Windows (samples
: directory name in unicode, in windows explorer).


Sample code of tk display of unicode string :

root = Tk()
myFont = tkFont.Font(size=18)
w = Label(root, text=unicodstring, font=myFont)
w.pack()
root.mainloop()



Aaah !  Last "truc"  : uniscribe is in  USP10.DLL  (look the version)




*sorry for my bad english*
