TODO list for ex - Some support for UTF-8 combining characters should probably be added. - Since the POSIX standard developers did not include a method to determine whether something is a valid collation symbol or an equivalence class, and since there is no access to the basic collation sequence, LC_COLLATE locales are completely ignored. - SVr4 ex probably has some silent features that this one should have too. - The traditional regular expression code in ex_re.c could be updated to work with multibyte characters. This would mostly involve to take the code from libcommon/regexp.h of the Heirloom Toolchest. Gunnar Ritter 2/19/05
