Software AG of Far East (SAGFE) has established various system environments peculiar to Japanese use since Japanese Kanji was supported on ADABAS for the first time in 1978.
The supporting of Japanese language, which started by putting the character strings on a special Kanji printer, has recently been improving with the development of terminal equipment and controllers.
This paper describes the progress of our supports for Japanese language at SAGFE and Software AG (SAG), West Germany and a study on Korean Hangul done by SAG and Penta Computer Korea as well as Japanese Kanji. Additionally, the method called DBCS (double-byte character set) support is proposed. We discuss the problems and solve those problems by adapting the fourth generation language, NATURAL, as a SAG product.
