[tex-live] Perltk-zh.pl in tl2008 has been finished in both simplified and traditional chinese.

Dear Zhao,

Thanks for your investigations, but I still have one problem:

Our code always deduces a 2 letter code. So I am not sure how that will
work.

Where???

As far as I see the code we use:

Does not give a full string (zh-XX) but only zh. That is what has
happened on your computer. It should have given zh-cn (simplified), but
got only zh.

So as long as we don't know how to get at the long value (zh-XX) we
cannot evaluate it.

Best wishes

Norbert
