1. PROBLEMS WITH DBCS (double-byte character sets) and Unicode

KeyNote has no support for double- or multi-byte character sets in its internal functions. It is possible to enter Chinese characters, for example, but I have received reports that doing so causes KeyNote to crash when the characters are selected. Sample files have been sent to me, and all I can see is that DBCS characters are displayed correctly and KeyNote does NOT crash on my system (Windows 2000 SP3, English). At present, KeyNote should be considered as having no support for DBCS, MBCS or Unicode characters.

There is a work-around for the DBCS problem: Open the Options dialog box (F5), select the "Rich text editor" section. Uncheck the following options, if any of them are checked:

   * "Show caret position in status bar"
   * "Show word count in status bar" 

Click OK. KeyNote should no longer crash when working with DBCS text.
