- # Notes on Mac OS Ukrainian and Mac OS Cyrillic:
- # ----------------------------------------------
- #
- # Before Mac OS 9.0, there were two separate Slavic Cyrillic
- # encodings for the Mac OS:
- #
- # 1. The Cyrillic currency sign variant (used for localized Russian
- # and Bulgarian systems), which had the following:
- # 0xA2 U+00A2 CENT SIGN
- # 0xB6 U+2202 PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL
- # 0xFF U+00A4 CURRENCY SIGN
- #
- # 2. The Ukrainian currency sign variant (used for localized Ukrainian
- # systems and the pre-9.0 Cyrillic Language Kit), which had the
- # following:
- # 0xA2 U+0490 CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER GHE WITH UPTURN
- # 0xB6 U+0491 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER GHE WITH UPTURN
- # 0xFF U+00A4 CURRENCY SIGN
- #
- # Before Mac OS 9.0, The Ukrainian currency sign variant shared the
- # script code smCyrillic (7) with the Cyrillic currency sign variant.
- # The Ukrainian currency sign variant was being used if one of the
- # following was true:
- # - The system region code was 62, verUkraine (indicates Ukrainian
- # localized system), or
- # - The system script was not 7, smCyrillic (indicates Cyrillic
- # Language Kit instead of localized system).
- #
- # For Mac OS 9.0, both currency sign variants were replaced with a new
- # Euro sign version of Mac OS Cyrillic, which is similar to the old
- # Ukrainian currency sign variant but changes 0xFF to EURO SIGN.
- #
- # Note: There is a common glyph variation in Ukrainian, in which the
- # glyph for CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER BYELORUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN I may or
- # may not have a dot above.
- #
- # Details of mapping changes in each version:
- # -------------------------------------------
- #
- # Changes from version n04 to version b02:
- #
- # - Encoding changed for Mac OS 9.0 to merge with Mac OS Cyrillic and
- # support EURO SIGN; 0xFF changed from U+00A4 to U+20AC. For Mac OS
- # 9.0 there is no longer a separate Mac OS Ukrainian character set, so
- # the mappings here are deleted; see the mappings in CYRILLIC.TXT.
