What do you mean by a new character set. MySQL has approx. 126 character/collation sets installed from which you can choose.

The following shows all character/collation sets available to you.

How do you imagine to install and use a 'new' one, i.e. one that is not part of the MySQL set?

Hi,

I have just installed mysql on a linux AS 4 machine. Now when I say
SHOW CHARACTER SET;
it shows 26 rows, but not 126(as mentioned by you), Please let me know how can I add more of character sets, if it is not pre added.

Thanks,
Kunal

Heya, Kunal.

I gotta say, I'm stumped. The only thing I can think of is to download a copy of the ujis character set and move it into MySQL's character set directory.

I'm not sure where you can get your hands on ujis for MySQL.
