UTF8_STRING is a new X11 atom currently in the process of being standardized by X.Org. UTF8_STRING allows seamless interchange of
international textual data between X11 clients; its main application is selection interchange (``cut and paste'').
A number of X11 clients already fully support UTF8_STRING for selection interchange; this includes
* the XFree86 version of XTerm
* the XFree86 version of the Xaw text widget and the xedit
* KDE applications
* Gtk+ toolkit, and hence Gnome applications;
* Mozilla, and hence Firefox
* StarOffice
The UTF8_STRING support addressed in this project are:
* API extension of Xlibrary functions:
XmbTextPropertyToTextList
XwcTextPropertyToTextList
XmbTextListToTextProperty
XwcTextListToTextProperty
