[Pharo-project] Russification

by Dennis Schetinin

Hi all! I'm trying to "localize" Pharo to be able to see and to type in russian letters. After (already many) hours I have no progress. Here details go... What I use: SmalltalkImage current vmVersion 'Squeak3.9 of 7 November 2006 [latest update: #7067]' "About Squeak on Win32" 'Squeak 3.10.6 (release) from Aug 30 2007' Size of Squeak.exe is 985600 bytes... pharo0.1-10193dev08.12.2.image bunch of DLLs new VM including freetype6.dl So far I see windows fonts in preferences. Now I try Locale switchToID: (LocaleID isoLanguage: 'ru'). This throws an exception in StrikeFont class >> setupDefaultFallbackFont (no #Accuat #Accujen #Accula etc. in the system). I just comment that out and go on. An exception in PainBoxMorph class >> localeChanged. The same 'decision'. So far, locale seems to be russian... Then I change fonts to one from windows (I tried Arial, Courier New, Times New Roman). After that I open workspace (having font there changed) and 'print it': file := MultiByteFileStream fileNamed: 'c:\Home\chaetal\Work\Pharo\russian\russian.txt'. [file contents] ensure: [file close]. (where russian.txt is UTF-8 file with russian text). This gives me a bunch of question marks... :( Switching on 'useLocale' preference gives a bit different locale id ('ru-RU') but the test with russian file still fails. I also tried to start Pharo with '-encoding UTF-8 -textenc UTF-8' keys. Than it simply hangs... Advices at http://wiki.squeak.org/squeak/5773 don't help either... Thank you for help in advance... I've heard there's new VM? Where can I get it? -- Dennis Schetinin

I also never use sound (imagine an office with 5 people each playing a sound when opening a browser window ;)). If there is sound I would turn it off by default.
