• A tutorial on character code issues - This document tries to clarify the concepts of character repertoire, character code, and character encoding especially in the Internet context. It specifically avoids the term character set, which is confusingly used to denote repertoire or code or encoding. ASCII, ISO 646, ISO 8859 (ISO Latin, especially ISO Latin 1), Windows character set, ISO 10646 (UCS), Unicode, UTF-8, UTF-7, MIME, and QP are used as examples. This document in itself does not contain solutions to practical problems with character codes (but see section Further reading). Rather, it gives background information needed for understanding what solutions there might be, what the different solutions do - and what's really the problem in the first place.

• Guide to the Unicode 3.0 standard - This document is mainly intended for "ordinary" people who read the Unicode 3.0 standard in order to get information about some particular characters or character processing issues that are important to them. So this is basically for normal "users", and hence there is less emphasis on topics that are relevant to implementors, i.e. people creating software (or hardware) for processing Unicode characters.

• Freemem (414 KB) - Many programs need a lot of memory (RAM) to work properly and efficiently. Unfortunately the memory management of Microsoft Windows Operating Systems lacks efficient strategies.
