• Chinese text display

1. direct usage(run in Windows via simulation)

   Install VS(2008+, express edition should be OK), run scons on the root directory of this project. There will be two executeables in the folder executeables/. One is demo.exe, the other is demo_shell.exe. After copying resource/ and $RTT_ROOT/bsp/simulator/SDL/lib/x86/SDL.dll to executeables/, you are ready to run the programs above.

2. use it in RT-Thread

   Because RT-Thread has removed RTGUI component. You have to copy components/rtgui to the components folder. If you need demo, you should copy all the files in demo/examples to the examples/gui folder under RTT. Don't forget to re-run scons.
