Here are the consolidated answers to the original question from
Michael Everson (everson@irlearn.ucd.ie):

     Are there any Unicode implementations for the Macintosh yet?
     I know that TrueType font characters can be given Unicode values,
     which is handy, but I haven't even heard of any experimental Mac
     stuff.

     I won't be buying a Newton soon..... :-(

Not that I know of (except for that toolkit for multiplenplatforms
which uses UniCode - Galaxy?)

The Mac has its own multibyte system.

Actually, Newton *is* based on Unicode.
There are other reasons you may not want one right now, icluding the fact
that the handwriting recognition has still not been released in
international versions (e.g., it does not recognize the way I was taght to
write a cursive t in school back in Denmark).
