    Use Unicode, like UTF-8 or UTF-16 or whatever version’s appropriate for your application.

    Subject: Which Character sets to support for kazakh cyrillic alphabet ?

    Hi All,

    I need to implement support for Kazakh cyrillic alphabet.
    As per wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kazakh_alphabet ), there are two standard 8 bit character sets for this alphabet:

      * CT PK 920-91 for DOS (a modification of code page<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Code_page> 866)
      * CT PK 1048—2002 for Windows (a modification of code page 1251)
    Now I couldn't find any more detail online about these two character sets.
    Please help me know, which all char sets should I support for this alphabet. And if the above char sets are the standard ones, where can I find their mapping tables (with unicode code points) ?

    Thanks in advance
    Ankur Mathur
