Your idea sounds interesting.
But I still wonder how Win9x can know what the upper cases are.
For example in Germany we have ä=Ä, ö=Ö and ü=Ü. In that German charset, these
characters are of course in the 256-ASCII table included. Would they be
processed in Win9x then too, even if they are in Unicode not in the ASCII table?
