Welcome to the seed of the Text Encoding Converter for Mac OS.
The Text Encoding Converter (TEC) is a shared library for converting text between common character encoding standards, including Unicode 2.0, Mac OS, Windows, EUC, and ISO-8859 series.
The TEC works with both PowerPC and 68k Mac OS computers. To use with 68k computers make sure you have the new CFM-68K Runtime Enabler v4.0 installed. To install the TEC, place the shared library "Text Encoding Converter" into the Extensions folder and the "Text Encodings" folder into the System Folder.

To get your code working you need to include the following compiler directives before you include the header files.
#define FOR_SYSTEM7_AND_SYSTEM8_PREEMPTIVE 1
#define FOR_SYSTEM7_AND_SYSTEM8_COOPERATIVE 1
#include "Unicode.h"
Note that the TEC has undergone significant changes since the previous seed that was released to developers in November, 1995. If you have code that uses the previous seed version, it is likely that you will have to modify that code to use this new version.
