Are you sure about that? That most Big5 variants include the Eten extensions, is a myth. The Eten encoding maps 0xC7F3 to U+0410 CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER A 0xF9F0 to U+2565 BOX DRAWINGS DOWN DOUBLE AND HORIZONTAL SINGLE 0xF9D6 to U+7881 The only mappings that do this are: - BIG5-HKSCS - ICU's MACOS-2566-10.2.TXT - ICU's IBM-1375_P100-2003.TXT The reality is that many Big5 variants include _parts_ of Eten. Some have the 0xC6..0xC7 rows; some have their contents swapped. Some have the 0xF9 row, some don't.
