Add tools for generating mappings_XX.h #84508
Comments
AFAIK, there are no tools for generating mappings_XX.h under Modules/cjkcodecs. It would cause a maintainable issue, The patch will include a generator and Unicode mapping file. |
Would you close this issue? |
mappings_hk.h mappings_tw.h are still left :) |
Hey @corona10, I happened upon this for other reasons. I found that Python's big5hkscs codec does not support the same character set that modern web browsers support. There has been at least one version of HKSCS (2008) that updated the Big5-encoded character set, and one more recent version (2016) which only added characters to Unicode (with no Big5 mapping), but might adjust some of the existing mappings. I still need to understand if this might break compatibility. Is it okay if I look into this and try to make a PR later? I've already done something for mappings_hk but need to look into the compatibility, so it might take a second. |
@sorcio Oh thanks, PR will be welcomed :) |
