Does anybody know anyone who's actually using Applixware now? It had its time when there was nothing else for most Unix plattforms, but those days are over. Goodbye Applixware!
As some AC mentioned, support for multibyte characters is readily available in several (non-free) operating systems. The problem is translation of the software. All the major stuff is available for CJK (Chinese, Japanese, Korean) because that's where money can be made. The article mentions the 18 official languages in India, and that's the problem. None of the big commercial vendors has taken the effort of translating into these languages, and this is where Open Source can help, by enabling the locals to do it themselves.
