Hello,

I just looked at your port to see if we could merge the good bits into one
port, but I see that you are using the Windows 3.1/3.11 compatible fonts,
whereas I used the Windows 9x/NT/2000 fonts (newer versions, more encodings
etc).

What I could merge is the substitution of koi8-ru to koi8-u. I didn't fiddle
with the encodings because I only use ISO8859-1 and -7 and chances were I'd
break them :) Perhaps someone actually using the Ukrainian alphabet could
enlighten us regarding this matter - until then I'll stick to koi8-ru which
is what the cyrillic fonts that ship with XFree86 4.0.3 use.

Regards,

K. Konstantinidis
