[edit] Listcruft

Is this list of functions really necessary? Can we instead link to some MSDN documentation? Timbatron 21:43, 28 November 2006 (UTC)

Good point. I've decide to 'Be Bold' and delete it. Banality 04:38, 22 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] UCS2

Under Windows NT/2000/XP, the screen buffer uses four bytes per character cell: two bytes for character code, two bytes for attributes. The character is then encoded as Unicode (UCS2).

But UCS2 characters can be longer than 2 bytes. --Abdull 09:21, 8 June 2007 (UTC)

No, UTF-16 characters can be longer than 2 bytes. — 71.147.52.209 (talk) 04:08, 19 November 2007 (UTC)
