Hi,

I could not see Thai-XTIS on my XEmacs-21.4.14 correctly.

mm... When I type `M-? h' on my xemacs-21.4.14, I could not read
`Hello' in Thai, only tildes. But I could read on Emacs-21.3.*(`C-h
h') on my debian box.

Also tutorial (Thai), I could see (perhaps correct Thai fonts) on
Emacs-21.3.*, but I could not display Thai fonts on XEmacs-21.4.14
(absurd fonts).

I have installed some fonts for Thai language.

xfonts-intl-asian, xfonts-thai-* (debian package)
  -include /etc/X11/fonts/misc/xfonts-thai-etl.alias
                               xfonts-thai-manop.alias
                               xfonts-thai-nectec.alias
                               xfonts-thai-vor.alias

ttf-freefont (debian package)

I attach the screenshoot for describing this.

;; left-side  : Emacs-21.3     (debian package)
;; right-side : XEmacs-21.4.14 (compiled from source by myself)



I try to copy with drag mouse-button1 from TUTORIAL.th on Emacs-21.3, paste
with mouse-button3 to the buffer of XEmacs-21.4.14 (iso-2022-7bit), and
save as TUTORIAL.th.iso7, I try by XEmacs-21.4.14 `C-x C-f
TUTORIAL.th.iso7' could display thai font, but it seemed some
character shown incorrectly as 2 characters, it should be 1 character.

and I could not display correctly my XEmacs;
C-x C-m c iso-2022-7bit-unix /usr/share/emacs/21.3/etc/TUTORIAL.th

;; Emacs-21.3 shown this as `-J' in mode line.

I also tried to test
http://www.ysnb.net/meadow/meadow-develop/2000/msg00197.html ,
http://www.netlaputa.ne.jp/~hshirai/Image/test.png , but XEmacs
display only tildes as thai font like as follow;

Thai (~~~~~~)~~~~~~, ~~~~~~^M
nil

;; Emacs21.3 display thai font (perhaps correctly).
