+
+       * gdk/gdkkeysyms.h: Add new keysyms from X11R6.4 (including
+       EuroSign).
+
+       * gdk/gdktypes.h: Add note about wchar_t not necessarily being the
+       same type as GdkWChar, especially on Win32.
+
+       * gdk/win32/*.c: Change gdk_root_parent to be a pointer.
+
+       * gdk/win32/*.c: Assume all strings are UTF-8. Convert to Unicode
+       before passing to Windows GDI for drawing etc. Convert to the
+       system default codepage before passing to Windows as window
+       titles.
+
+       * gdk/win32/gdkprivate.h: Add more fields to GdkWindowPrivate to
+       support changing input locale on the fly.
+
+       * gdk/win32/gdkevent.c: Support input language (keyboard locale)
+       on-the-fly changes. Convert incoming characters from the current
+       codepage to Unicode (and then to a UTF-8 multi-byte string) based
+       on the current input language. Use keysym<->Unicode mapping tables
+       and functions borrowed from xterm sources.
+
+       Support IMEs (Input Method Editors) for CJK languages. On non-CJK
+       editions of Win9x, use the ActiveX-based Active IMM (Input Method
+       Manager) if available. IMEs and the Active IMM are available under
+       the disguise of Chinese, Korean and Japanese support for IE and
+       Outlook Express from "Windows Update" for Win98. On Win2k, the CJK
+       support is present in all editions (as long as you install it).
+
+       Call DispatchMessage from gdk_events_queue() (and thus
+       gdk_WindowProc()), instead of duplicating the code in
+       gdk_WindowProc().
+
+       Reworked the grab handling and propagation code, factored out
+       duplicated code snippets into separate functions. Other cleanups,
+       too.
+
+       * gdk/win32/surrogate-dimm.h: Provide just the bits we need from
+       the <dimm.h> header describing the Active IMM.
+
+       * gdk/win32/gdkfont.c: Pretend to support fontsets, but so far
+       just do the same as for "single" fonts.
+
+       * gdk/win32/gdk.c: Call CoInitialize() (COM initialisation) from
+       gdk_init_check, and CoUninitialize() from gdk_exit_func. Handle
+       the new keysyms from gdkkeysyms.h.
+
+       * gtk/gtkfontsel.c (Win32): Load the font for the preview as a
+       fontset, so that gtkentry uses wide characters.
+
+       * gtk/gtkrc.c (Win32): Get the locale with gwin_getlocale(). Call
+       GTk+'s system directory "gtk+", not "gtk".
