[Bug 9726] New: Hebrew text: input impossible
http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9726 Summary: Hebrew text: input impossible Product: Wine Version: 0.9.45. Platform: Other OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: wine-gui AssignedTo: wine-bugs(a)winehq.org ReportedBy: winehq-bugs(a)dotancohen.com Created an attachment (id=8160) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=8160) Shows "Swedish vowels" that display on the screen instead of Hebrew when typing in Wine. The real Hebrew was typed on Windows. When typing Hebrew in applications under wine, I get different results with different programs. No program is actually able to enter Hebrew text. MS Notepad: The first letter shows up fine. All subsequent keypresses display the same letter on the screen. Moving the cursor to the first letter and deleting it transforms the other letters into what they should be. So typing Shin-Lamed-Vav-MemSofit shows Shin-Shin-Shin-Shin on the screen. Backing up and deleting the first Shin leaves Lamed-Vav-MemSofit on the screen. Note that the letters do appear right to left (so the text is readable) however it is left-aligned. I can successfully paste Hebrew text copied from native Linux applications and it displays fine. Ilium Software ListPro: I imported my ListPro database from Windows. Hebrew text typed on Windows displays fine, but I cannot add new text. All text that I type in Wine displays in the wrong encoding, it looks like Swedish vowels. See attachment: the Hebrew was typed in Windows, and the "Swedish vowels" is text that I tried to add in Wine. I can successfully paste Hebrew text copied from native Linux applications. For reference, this is my setup: ubuntu(a)ubuntu-laptop:~$ wine --version wine-0.9.45 ubuntu(a)ubuntu-laptop:~$ locale LANG=C LANGUAGE=he_IL:he:en_GB:en LC_CTYPE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_TIME="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_NAME="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_ALL=he_IL.UTF-8 Thanks. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=9726 --- Comment #3 from Alon Bar-Lev <alon.barlev(a)gmail.com> 2007-09-21 10:12:15 --- My LANG is he and I got problems... There is a different between wine "native" applications that works fine, and binaries running on wine environment. For example, ies4linux install ie6, it handles Hebrew fine except of typing Hebrew, which results in '?'. Pasting Hebrew from other applications works fine! So currently when I need to enter Hebrew text I write it in kate and paste it into wine application... :) xev works OK. notepad works OK (Modifying the font to arial). BTW: It will be great if you add Wine version to "About Wine"... -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Now that I have changed the font, I cannot type in Hebrew in Notepad at all. Even switching back to font "system", or closing and reopening the app, does not help. In other words, now I cannot type in Hebrew in Notepad at all. @Dmitry: The Notepad and ListPro logs are attached. Note that this is _after_ I messed up my ability to type in Hebrew in Notepad after trying Alon's suggestion.

In the filenames dialog, the Hebrew filesnames look like gibberish. If I try to open them I get an invalid filename error. Also, I cannot type in Hebrew in this situation. When I type in Hebrew, nothing appears on the screen. 2) ListPro started from a KDE shortcut from this command: wine "/home/ubuntu/.wine/drive_c/Program Files/Ilium Software/ListPro/ListPro.exe" In this situation, I _can_ open ListPro files with Hebrew filenames.

LC_ALL takes precedence over any LC_xxx variable. Besides, as xev behaviour shows that's not a Wine specific thing, but X11 one.

System font (the font with the name "System") can't display Hebrew characters because it simply doesn't have them. I'm not sure from your description what difference you are talking about.

Of course! As I set the LC_ALL to ${LANG}.
System font (the font with the name "System") can't display Hebrew characters because it simply doesn't have them. I'm not sure from your description what difference you are talking about.
I must be crazy! See the attached... :) I think you will notice that System font has Hebrew... An for some strange reason the LC_ALL affect this. You will notice two instances of notepad... First instance is activated using: LC_ALL="${LANG} notepad Second (<2>) instance is activated using: notepad My locale is: $ locale LANG=he_IL.utf8 LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 LC_NUMERIC=he_IL.utf8 LC_TIME=en_US.utf8 LC_COLLATE=he_IL.utf8 LC_MONETARY=he_IL.utf8 LC_MESSAGES=en_US.utf8 LC_PAPER=he_IL.utf8 LC_NAME=he_IL.utf8 LC_ADDRESS=he_IL.utf8 LC_TELEPHONE=he_IL.utf8 LC_MEASUREMENT=he_IL.utf8 LC_IDENTIFICATION=he_IL.utf8 LC_ALL=
Again, what's exactly the problem you are observing?
First I could never type Hebrew... But throughout this bug I realized that the LC_ALL someone modify wine behavior, while I expected the LANG would do so. I still don't understand the difference between the two instances of notepad, all I know that one is working and the other does not... Also that if I setup LC_ALL="${LANG}" ies4linux also works correctly. So basically I am asking why wine does not use LANG in order to detect locale? Don't get me wrong here... I am very happy that it is working now... But still I think something is odd with configuration.

The problem is here: LC_CTYPE=en_US.utf8 You need to set it to he_IL.utf8.
Thanks! But why do you require this? If I set this I have some issues with sorting... Why does Wine needs this one?

Thanks! But why do you require this? If I set this I have some issues with sorting... Why does Wine needs this one?
According to the man page LC_CTYPE controls character classification and case conversion. So it does change sorting. As far as I remember explicit LC_CTYPE handling was added to Wine due to request from Shachar Shemesh (the person who have added BiDi support and quite a bit of Hebrew support to Wine), so that one could have English user interface and ability to type Hebrew with LANG=en_US,LC_CTYPE=he_IL -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

A Unix program takes its handling from LC_ALL, then specific overrides, and then reverts to whatever LANG says. So, if LANG is en_US and LC_CTYPE is he_IL, a Unix program should display its interface in English, display date and time in American format, use $ for currency etc., but use the ISO-8859-8 encoding. If you add LC_ALL=fr_FR, it all reverts to French no matter what the specs say. The overrides relevant here are LC_CTYPE, which controls encoding, and LC_MESSAGE, which control the messages language. Last I was involved (which was long ago), I introduced LC_CTYPE handling (over Dmitry vocal objections :-), and I never got around to adding LC_MESSAGE support as well. I don't know whether one was added since. Before my patch, LANG was the only environment variable that Wine would look at, in violation of the way things are supposed to be done on Unix. The last part of the bug report has to do with the locale actually being compiled. If you set the environment correctly, and things still don't work (in particular - with xev, as was the case), make sure that the locale you set your env to appears when you do "locale -a". If it doesn't, you need to compile the proper locale (dpkg-reconfigure locales on Debian, other distros will have their own ways).

Closing.
Dimitry, I think that Alon Bar-Lev has hijacked this bug. The problem is _not_ solved on my machine, and I am the OP of this bug. I was gone for two days (physics exam) and when I returned I found this bug now closed. This is my locale: ubuntu(a)ubuntu-laptop:~$ locale LANG=he_IL.UTF-8 LANGUAGE=he_IL.UTF-8 LC_CTYPE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_NUMERIC="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_TIME="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_COLLATE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MONETARY="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MESSAGES="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_PAPER="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_NAME="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_ADDRESS="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_TELEPHONE="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_MEASUREMENT="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_IDENTIFICATION="he_IL.UTF-8" LC_ALL=he_IL.UTF-8 Xev shows that the keyboard is sending the correct signals (it mentions hebrew_shin): state 0x2000, keycode 38 (keysym 0xcf9, hebrew_shin), same_screen YES, However, I _still_ cannot type in Hebrew in ListPro.

Dotan,
The line that tells us whether the locale is correctly compile is this: XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
If it says it returned one (or, in the UTF-8 case, two) bytes, and then display an actual ש (shin), then we can say that locale is correctly compiled. The fact it states this is a Shin merely means that you have the correct keyboard loaded.
Assuming it says it returned 0 bytes (which, I'm guessing, it does), run "locale -a" and check that "he_IL.UTF-8" actually appears on the list. If it does not, then this bug is invalid, as Dmitry have marked it.

Your locale is not correctly set up. You must use a locale that appears in the list of compiled locales (the list returned by locale -a). It appears that on your system, the locale is called "he_IL.utf8" - the UTF part is lower case and with no hyphen between UTF and 8.

Please take some time and carefully re-read it trying to follow every step/advice. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

What you are missing now is a correct keyboard layout, 'setxkbmap us,il' is what you need to execute.
Dotan, actually scratch that. The log shows that correct keysyms are being sent by X11 and Wine handles them correctly. Perhaps now the correct font which has Hebrew characters is missing. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Created an attachment (id=8290) --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=8290) [details] [details] Notepad log with correct locale parameters
Regarding xev, just run it, type a few keys in Hebrew, and quit. Paste the output here.
Regarding notepad, just to make sure - open the "font" dialog, and make sure you are using a font with the encoding of "Hebrew".

The default font in notepad, "system" does have the encoding "Hebrew". For good measure I switched it to Tahoma just in case. No change, same behaviour as described at the beginning of this bug. Here is my current xev output: KeyPress event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x2c00001, root 0x52, subw 0x0, time 1490714926, (27,276), root:(750,712), state 0x2000, keycode 38 (keysym 0xcf9, hebrew_shin), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 2 bytes: (d7 a9) "ש" XmbLookupString gives 2 bytes: (d7 a9) "ש" XFilterEvent returns: False KeyRelease event, serial 33, synthetic NO, window 0x2c00001, root 0x52, subw 0x0, time 1490715083, (27,276), root:(750,712), state 0x2000, keycode 38 (keysym 0xcf9, hebrew_shin), same_screen YES, XLookupString gives 2 bytes: (d7 a9) "ש" XFilterEvent returns: False -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Merely having a Hebrew encoding is not enough. It also has to be select. When you open the "Fonts" dialog, does the "Script" pull down say "Hebrew"? If so, do Hebrew letters appear in the "Sample" area? If the answer is affirmative to both, please try again with latest Wine.

Yes, we can finally say that your locale is working, at least. Shachar -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Hey! Upgrading from wine-0.9.45 to wine-0.9.46 makes the letters appear as expected. However, they are justified left and in the reverse order (so שלום reads as םולש). Note that ListPro, the app that I _really_ need to work, still produces "Swedish vowels" when I type in Hebrew. And now, the Hebrew that was in the ListPro files displays backwards, wherein it displayed correctly with wine-0.9.45. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

Hey! Upgrading from wine-0.9.45 to wine-0.9.46 makes the letters appear as expected. However, they are justified left and in the reverse order (so שלום reads as םולש). Yes, it's a known regression. The BiDi code has undergone a minor rewrite by Maarten Lankhorst. This rewrite temporarily (I hope) disabled it by mistake. A patch to fix that has been submitted, but I'm has not yet been applied in git.
Note that ListPro, the app that I _really_ need to work, still produces "Swedish vowels" when I type in Hebrew. Ok, Dmitry, and idea how to debug that one?
This may actually be a bug in ListPro. Try working with a non-unicode locale. Also, make sure the locale is the same for LANG and LC_CTYPE. Set it to "he_IL" or "he_IL.ISO-8859", and see whether that solves the problem. Not all applications take to multi-byte characters well in ANSI mode.
And now, the Hebrew that was in the ListPro files displays backwards, wherein it displayed correctly with wine-0.9.45. That's part of the same regression. I'm hoping it will get fixed by 0.9.46.

I'd suggest to open another bug and attach a +font,+xrender log there (compressed with bzip2 -9), and close this bug since an original problem with locale/keyboard input is fixed. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
