Any pointers/hints what to read/use?Sorry, no unicode support in Chicken, I'm afraid. You will need to either write some translation code yourself or use an external C library.What do you mean by "translation code". My point is that I'd like to use especially SRFI 13 with unicode strings... How much work is this going to be?
That would need a separate unicode string type (no big deal) and a set of standard string-procedures that handle these properly (much more complicated - especially if you expect all the R5RS routines to do the right thing). And of course one would have to fix srfi-13 and srfi-14 appropriately. I don't know how hard this is. I have to check the sources... cheers, felix
