EVALUATION [naoyuki 1/8/97] This code \u301c is not diaplayed in real WindowsNT3.51, too. But if user specify SJIS 0x8160, JDK converter ByteToCharSJIS convert to \u301c, so this might be a problem.

SUGGESTED FIX Windows doens't map 0x301C to a valid SJIS character. JDK converter maps to a full tilde. This is incorrect. This is reported in bug id 4066961. Corrected this problem in the JDK converter to work like windows converter. shanmugam.senthil@Eng 1998-01-27
