Unicode, Windows, and the .NET Framework

Unicode, Windows, and the .NET Framework
As the title suggests, this chapter provides a great overview of where Unicode fits into the Windows operating system and the .NET Framework. It provides some super tips about using virtualisation via VirtualPC in order to test your internationalisation efforts. A succinct and to-the-point explanation of the Windows Multilingual User Interface (MUI) pack follows – appropriate use of screenshots makes it fairly lively. This chapter closes with a description of dotnetfx.exe, a file that is used by millions of people worldwide – it is the setup dialogs from the Microsoft web-site that the determine which language dotnetfx.exe uses once it has been downloaded.
