ASE is the system environment covering the Asian countries of Japan, Korea, and China. It includes these four system environments:

JSE

Japanese System Environment

KSE

Korean System Environment

SSE

Simplified-Chinese System Environment

TSE

Traditional-Chinese System Environment

The following information is common to each of these environments:

  • ximsstart is replaced with dtimsstart on HP-UX 11.0 CDE. With this change, XimsMode in "Application Manager - Desktop_tools" on CDE is replaced with DtImsMode.

  • The command /usr/bin/X11/ximsmode has been removed at HP-UX 11.0. No alternative is provided.

  • The following HP proprietary old locale names are no longer supported.

    japanese

    japanese.euc

    korean

    chinese-s

    chinese-t

    chinese-t.big5

    Instead of HP proprietary old locale names, use the following locales:

    OldNew
    japaneseja_JP.SJIS
    japanese.eucja_JP.eucJP
    koreanko_KO.eucKR
    chinese-szh_CN.hp15CN
    chinese-tzh_TW.ccdc
    chinese-t.big5 zh_TW.big5

  • HP proprietary old X11 fonts are no longer supported. These X11 fonts under the following directories have been deleted:

    /usr/lib/X11/fonts/hp_japanese/75dpi

    /usr/lib/X11/fonts/hp_korean/75dpi

    /usr/lib/X11/fonts/hp_chinese_s/75dpi

    /usr/lib/X11/fonts/hp_chinese_t/75dpi

    If you use the old X11 fonts, you are impacted. Use the new X11 fonts instead of Intellifont.

    Instead of HP proprietary old X11 fonts, use the new fonts under the following directories:

  • Asian Starbase fonts have been deleted.

  • udcsc(1) - The tool for User Defined Characters in Starbase stroke fonts has been deleted.

  • Printers in the LaserJet II Series are no longer supported. Instead of LaserJet II Series printers, use printers from the LaserJet III, 4, and 5 Series.

  • Printing Asian PCL files to LIPS, PS, ESC/P, and Japanese PCL printers is no longer supported. Thus, you can no longer print Asian PCL files using the following model files as of HP-UX Release 11.0:
