[Xcircuit-dev] isolatin5 encoding ?

[ahmet nurlu]

Dear Dr. Edwards,

I followed your instructions below. I could now see ISOlatin5 in the text-->Encoding menu. But I still could not write turkish characters.  I compliled the Xcircuit with  Tcl  support .   For example, When I want to write a " i dottles "(a specific character in Turkish), I am getting a warning message at the bottom of window which says:
"Key idottles is not bound to a macro". 

Any Advise?

Thanking you,
Ahmet Nurlu

Which file to fix depends on whether you compiled Tcl support or not.
If you compiled xcircuit as a Tcl extension, edit the file
"/usr/local/lib/xcircuit-3.4/xcstartup.tcl" and uncomment the lines:

   xcircuit::loadfont times_romaniso5.xfe
   xcircuit::loadfont courieriso5.xfe
   xcircuit::loadfont helveticaiso5.xfe

If you compiled without Tcl support, the file will be
"/usr/local/lib/xcircuit-3.4/startup.script" and the lines to
uncomment are the following:

   font times_romaniso5.xfe
   font courieriso5.xfe
   font helveticaiso5.xfe

After that, you should see the option for ISO Latin 5 in the Text->
Encoding menu.  Note that you still need to post-process with
"ogonkify" before sending to a printer, since ISO Latin 5 isn't
built into PostScript.

     Tim
