Dear Members,<BR>
<BR>
I was wondering if anyone would have information on or know where I could find information on the populations of North and South Korea prior to the Korean War? If this was broken down by province, it would even be better, but I realize that I may be asking for too much.<BR>
<BR>
Thank you.<BR>
<BR>
Best Regards,<BR>

I received about 10 <BR>> messages, all reporting that Asian characters as well as special <BR>> non-ASCII characters for transcrition (?, ?, etc.) are only being <BR>> displayed as questionmarks or square boxes.<BR>> <BR>> All scholars writing were pointing out that they receive messages in <BR>> daily "digest" form--not one by one. That was really the only common <BR>> ground there, as everyone was using different operating systems and <BR>> different email applications.<BR>> <BR>> SOLUTION(s):<BR>> <BR>> (1) Simply stop using "digest" mode and receive messages one by one.<BR>> Login to the KS List options (your subscriber options):<BR>> http://koreaweb.ws/mailman/listinfo/koreanstudies_koreaweb.ws<BR>> Now look for the section marked "Digest Mode" checkbox and disable <BR>> that -- so you get messages one by one instead of digest mode.<BR>> <BR>> If this is really not what you want at all, then please try solution #2:<BR>> <BR>> (2) Login to the KS List options (your subscriber options):<BR>> http://koreaweb.ws/mailman/listinfo/koreanstudies_koreaweb.ws<BR>> Then look for the section marked "Get MIME or Plain Text Digests?."<BR>> Set it to "MIME" to receive digests in MIME format (it is now set to PLAIN).<BR>> <BR>> After that, you should hopefully be able to read Asian charcters <BR>> **if** you are using a relatively new email program (and NOT a Korean <BR>> program encoded for local usage only, not EUC-KR).<BR>> <BR>> FURTHER EXPMANATION:<BR>> "MIME" controls whether a plain text format or one that allows other <BR>> MIME types is the default format being sent out by the list. MIME <BR>> stands for "Multipurpose Internet Mail Extensions" and is an Internet <BR>> standard that extends the format of email to support non-ASCII <BR>> characters, multi-part attachments, and non-text attachments. The list <BR>> DEFAULT was set to "PLAIN" and not MIME. So anyone who subscribed AND <BR>> choose "digest" format was automatically set to PLAIN. That made sense <BR>> when we first used Mailman sofware in the late 1990s, because many of <BR>> the more simple mail applications/programs did not yet understand <BR>> MIME. I have now changed this default to MIME (for new subscribers), <BR>> but I have NOT changed the setting for existing list subscribers ... <BR>> simply because I am not 100% sure that this is the only cause for the <BR>> problem, and because there may be some subscribers who have a reason <BR>> for this setting, and I do not want to just overwrite that.<BR>> <BR>> A Mailman GUIDE can be found here:<BR>> http://wiki.list.org/display/DOC/Mailman+2.1+Members+Manual<BR>> Under 8.2 you will find further explanations about MIME.<BR>> <BR>> Mailman software is not perfect. As you will find out when reading <BR>> through some related postings at the developer's Mailman mailing list <BR>> a ton of compromises were made, also because of the many different <BR>> local encodings around, but also for historical reasons. Eventually it <BR>> will all be UTF-8 (Unicode) though. Mailman is now at version 2.1.4, <BR>> but a beta version 3 is already out. Hopefully that will work better <BR>> with Asian scripts.<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> Thanks.<BR>> <BR>> Frank<BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> <BR>> End of Koreanstudies Digest, Vol 88, Issue 28<BR>> *********************************************<BR> </body>
