APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX 3.5



SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario. You run shell scripts that process multibyte character set (MBCS) Japanese characters in Microsoft Windows Services for UNIX 3.5. The shell scripts are processed by using a Korn shell. In this scenario, some Japanese characters in the shell scripts are not written to the Stdout file. You may also receive an error message that resembles the following.

Error message 1


no closing double quotation

Error message 2


no closing back quotation

CAUSE

This problem occurs because an MBCS character is treated as single-byte character set (SBCS) characters at a specific point in the Korn shell. For example, the Japanese double byte character "955C" is interpreted separately as "95" and "5C" single byte characters in the Korn shell. Additionally, the double quotation mark character followed by the Japanese double-byte character set (DBCS) is interpreted as a backslash. The Japanese double-byte character "8360" is interpreted separately as "83" and "60." In this case, "60" is interpreted as a closing quotation mark.
