Compound Text Encoding say below 
> Once a GL or GR set has been defined, all further octets in that range (except
within control sequences and
> extended segments) are interpreted with respect to that character set
encoding, until the GL or GR set is
> redefined. GL and GR sets can be defined independently, they do not have to be
defined in pairs.

But in sjis_cttombs, sjis_ctstowcs, euc_ctstowcs and euc_ctstombs,
once GL or GR set is defined, the other set becomes undefined.
Ctext.patch will fix this. (Toshio Takabe)

> Note that when actually using a character set encoding as the GR set, you must
force the most significant
> bit (08/00) of each octet to be a one, so that it falls in the range 10/00 to
15/15.

sjis.patch fixs the problem that sjis_mbstocts doesn't set the most
significant bit to be a one. (Kensuke Matsuzaki)


If you need document about compound text, it is in xc/doc/*/CTEXT/.

I attached a test program. This program converts multi-byte text to
compound text, and re-converts compound text to multi-byte text.

compile
$ gcc -DX_LOCALE cnvtest.c -L /usr/X11R6/lib/ -lX11  -o cnvtest

and run. Input text and output text must be same. But
