This document provides notes on the Mac OS Ukrainian character set. It describes how before Mac OS 9.0, there were separate Cyrillic encodings for Russian/Bulgarian and Ukrainian systems. It also details the mapping changes between versions, noting that in Mac OS 9.0 the encodings were merged and the Euro sign was supported, removing the need for a separate Ukrainian character set.

# Notes on Mac OS Ukrainian and Mac OS Cyrillic:
# ----------------------------------------------
#
# Before Mac OS 9.0, there were two separate Slavic Cyrillic
# encodings for the Mac OS:
#
# 1. The Cyrillic currency sign variant (used for localized Russian
# and Bulgarian systems), which had the following:
# 0xA2 U+00A2 CENT SIGN
# 0xB6 U+2202 PARTIAL DIFFERENTIAL
# 0xFF U+00A4 CURRENCY SIGN
#
# 2. The Ukrainian currency sign variant (used for localized Ukrainian
# systems and the pre-9.0 Cyrillic Language Kit), which had the
# following:
# 0xA2 U+0490 CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER GHE WITH UPTURN
# 0xB6 U+0491 CYRILLIC SMALL LETTER GHE WITH UPTURN
# 0xFF U+00A4 CURRENCY SIGN
#
# Before Mac OS 9.0, The Ukrainian currency sign variant shared the
# script code smCyrillic (7) with the Cyrillic currency sign variant.
# The Ukrainian currency sign variant was being used if one of the
# following was true:
# - The system region code was 62, verUkraine (indicates Ukrainian
# localized system), or
# - The system script was not 7, smCyrillic (indicates Cyrillic
# Language Kit instead of localized system).
#
# For Mac OS 9.0, both currency sign variants were replaced with a new
# Euro sign version of Mac OS Cyrillic, which is similar to the old
# Ukrainian currency sign variant but changes 0xFF to EURO SIGN.
#
# Note: There is a common glyph variation in Ukrainian, in which the
# glyph for CYRILLIC CAPITAL LETTER BYELORUSSIAN-UKRAINIAN I may or
# may not have a dot above.
#
# Details of mapping changes in each version:
# -------------------------------------------
#
# Changes from version n04 to version b02:
#
# - Encoding changed for Mac OS 9.0 to merge with Mac OS Cyrillic and
# support EURO SIGN; 0xFF changed from U+00A4 to U+20AC. For Mac OS
# 9.0 there is no longer a separate Mac OS Ukrainian character set, so
# the mappings here are deleted; see the mappings in CYRILLIC.TXT.
