Cant' Find Out How To Use Charset Iso-8859-15
« on: December 11, 2004, 02:32:30 pm »
Hello all,

I have tried evry thing (google, search in these forums and others...) I still can't use an ISO-8859-15 charset.

I am running openzaurus 3.5.2 on an SL5500, with opie.

I have installed glib-locale-dataxxx, localedef, etc...
I ran localedef and it worked fine (i.e the fr_FR@euro directory is correctly installed)
I have installed opie-i18n
I set up the LANG environnement variable to fr_FR@euro

The french translation works perfectly on opie, and my only problem is that I have boxes or '@' instead of french accents like 'é'

Is there anybody (french, german, spanish, russian, turkish, chinese....) who managed to install and use the locale corresponding to his native language ?

Thank you very much

Best regards,

Chicha.

P.S : I know this is a recurrent problem, but I really search the web for a solution ;-)

You need fonts that support the character set you want.

If you can't find them you will need to make them yourself - see Converting TTF Fonts

But there are some fonts that will probably work over at http://www.externe.net/zaurus/fonts/
