Richard Suchenwirth 2002-07-10 - Here is a tiny tool that may be helpful when dealing with Korean Hangul \ characters. You can paste in Hangul strings into the upper entry, and convert it to (approximated) Hanglish transliteration with <Return>; or type Hanglish into the bottom entry, and convert it with <Return> to Hangul if possible. You can also visualize any Unicode in the \u.... notation, as the example shows.

set font {"Baekmuk Dotum" 13 bold}to port the above code onto my iPAQ ;-)
