------- Additional Comments From dmalinovsky@gmail.com 2006-09-11 00:00 ------- Sorry to disappoint you but even with your startup parameters I've got the same results for both binary and compiled wine versions.
I tried to run "LANG=ru_RU wine notepad" but it didn't accept cyrillic input with the same message as I posted earlier.
When I run simple "wine notepad" (my locale is en_US) it didn't allow me to enter cyrillic letters (but w/o any error messages) with default "System" font (it had only "Western" script available). So I changed Notepad font to be "DejaVu Sans" instead and script to "Cyrillic". Now I can enter cyrillic symbols correctly in Notepad, but not with LANG=ru_RU.
My application doesn't have cyrillic output; when I'm trying to enter cyrillic letters I've got "?" marks for en_US LANG. Obviously this application isn't compiled with Unicode support contrary to Notepad.
Do you have any ideas?
