Big5 is a superset of US [ASCII] representing Chinese characters in 2 bytes. It is/was widely used in Taiwan, but is not [ISO2022] compliant. Unless there is a compelling reason not to, [Unicode] should be used in the place of Big5. See also: charsets(7), charset(1), ascii(7) and unicode(7). ---- In the corporate world, the Big 5 were the large accounting firms: * [Arthur Andersen|http://www.arthurandersen.com] * [Deloitte & Touche|http://www.deloitte.com] * [Ernst & Young|http://www.eyi.com] * [KPMG|http://www.kpmg.com] * [Price Waterhouse Coopers|http://www.pwcglobal.com] Whether Arthur Andersen should still be counted in the Big5 after the fallout from Enron is very dubious.
