Re: Question about ICU Converter Explorer

Many thanks for the tips. 'ulocdata_getExemplarSet' was the key thing I  
was missing (this is a really handy addition to ICU, by the way).

On the way to implementing this function, I ran into a couple of issues  
(also with 'uset_applyPattern') -- but they seem to be specific to  
ICU4C so I will take it up on the icu4c list (once I get my facts  
straight).

Thanks again for your kindness and speedy assistance.
