Any plans to support multi-byte languages (Korea, Japan, ...)? #27

Open tonghyun opened 1 year ago

I am using this program very well. However, I want to output Korean on a serialized window, The beta support is only up to UTF8, so it doesn't output normally, but is there a future support plan? I don't intend to distribute it, but can I modify the code and try it? Thanks.

This isn't something I had planned on (I am not familiar with any multi-byte languages), but you are absolutely welcome to try making the necessary changes to the code to see if you can get it working. If you do that, it would be greatly appreciated if you would share those changes here (either in this thread or - if you're comfortable enough doing so - with a pull request). That would allow me to integrate your improvements into the base code and share them with everyone.

I've done a lot of embedded C development and very little in C#, so it'll take some time, but I'll have to think about multi-byte languages.
