For adding a language on gdm's login screen, apart from having a locale file, few translations and required fonts, it is required that language is recognized by fontconfig. To make a fontconfig recognize the language, a related lang.orth file is required. With my experiment on this, I think there is also need to add an entry to fcfreetype.c of fontconfig and related language code entry in ttnameid.h of freetype2. After making all these changes the language is listed in the gdm's list. But this has a problem, as the entries of language code in ttnameid.h are MS and MAC codes for these languages and there are languages that do not have these codes but are included in iso639-2 language codes. Thus my question is, how much important is it to have an entry for the language in the file fcfreetype.c of fontconfig and related entry in the header file ttnameid.h of freetype2? And what is to be done for the language that does not have MS or MAC code? Is it possible to use our own codes? Can anyone please help resolving this? -- Rahul. http://b.rahul.pm.googlepages.com/home - http://rahulpmb.blogspot.com - http://samadiyami.blogspot.com - http://mazikavita.blogspot.com _______________________________________________ Fedora-fonts-list mailing list Fedora-fonts-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-fonts-list
