[Vm-dev] Windows VM Unicode support...

[Chris Petsos]

OK...you can find everyting you need for the Unicode Windows VM here...

http://users.kef.sch.gr/chrispetsos/WindowsUnicodeVM.zip

I did a few fixes to the code i posted yesterday...
The zip has installation notes but I will also paste them here so that anyone can google-find various terms used there...

------------------------------- INSTALLATION NOTES -----------------------------------------
"You should be using the Unicode/UTF8 VM... SqueakUnicodeUTF8.exe"
"I tested it on the latest eToys image for OLPC."

"Let's start..."

"Drag 'n Drop UnicodeEnvironment.cs -> fileIn entire file"

"Drag 'n Drop GreekEnvironment.cs -> fileIn entire file."

"Execute this*"
Locale currentPlatform: (Locale localeID: (LocaleID isoString: 'el')).

"Drag 'n Drop TTFUnicodeFix.cs -> fileIn entire file."

"Drag 'n Drop your favourite TT Unicode font."

"Now you should have a new font installed."
"Highlight a text."
"Hit Alt+k and select your new font"

"
Well...that was it...type in your locale's specific unicode characters and see them getting
rendered with a beautiful TT unicode font.
"

"Now, this version should be working OK for other languages too."
"Please feel free to test it for other languages and other image versions too..."

"
So, now... 
 1) you have a VM that is sending unicode chars to eToys (thanks to Diomidis Spinellis...)
 2) you have a fixed Unicode font support (thanks to Bert Freudenberg...)
 3) you have UTF-8 clipboard functionality (thanks to me!...and all the Vm-dev support @:) )
 4) you have a unicode environment inside the image (thanks to me again of course!) ;-)
"

"
Ok...enough with happy talking...any problems that you'll encounter (hope you won't)
please post them up...
"



"*To execute: (Highlight -> Alt+d)"
