The JapaneseCodecs package comes with both Python and C versions of the codecs. It includes more encodings, in particular the cp932 codec, which is used on Windows (cp932 used to be understood as a synonym for shift-jis, but that understanding is incorrect, so these are considered as two different encodings these days). I believe they produce different output, but haven't tested. Hisao complains that Tamito's codecs don't include the full source for the generated files, but I believe (without testing) that you just need a few files from the Unicode consortium to generate all source code. > Would this kill Tamito's codecs, or are those still preferred for > people doing a lot of Japanese? As long as Python doesn't provide cp932, people will still install the JapaneseCodecs. Regards, Martin
