Welcome! Here is an overview of what is available at this Web site:

• I no longer maintain my KX/kxterm package. I suggest you try one of the add-ons for Firefox, such as Zhong-wen.
• An introduction to Chinese computing, for both native speakers and learners of Chinese by Professor Matloff. Introduces the concepts of various Chinese codings, and so on; written in a nontechnical manner, giving the user the absolute minimum.

• Sites in which Chinese materials, e.g. magazines and novels, can be read or downloaded.

• A list of other Web sites for Chinese software or other Chinese-language topics.
