Hello,
I've looked for a BIDI HOW-TO, but did not find any.
I use wine-0.9.5, and run IE using ies4linux. It works great
including Hebrew showing Hebrew text correctly.
The problem is that I could not write any Hebrew
character... Whenever I type a character I get "?".
So I've looked at wine-bidi issues, and found that I need to
compile wine with icu library. I did! using 3.4 and 2.8.
Using this new wine+icu, the IE stopped to show Hebrew text
correctly, and I still could not type Hebrew characters.
I've tested the test program 01-biditest.c, it is strange
since it fails on Windows (2003) and succeeds under wine.
My questions:
1. How do I get BIDI support for IE without ICU?
2. Why ICU interfere with the BIDI support of IE (If IE
comes with its own BIDI implementation).
3. Can I configure something in order to write Hebrew text
in wine?
Best Regards,
Alon Bar-Lev.
I've also struggled with IE in Hebrew. I don't remember everything
that I did, but I could never type. Even cut and paste would leave
???'s.
I did manage to get a Hebrew installation of Office working properly.
I think that was with Crossover Offive 4.x, but even with CX I could
not type in IE. Which is horrible because so many Hebrew sites require
IE (walla mail, d.co.il maps, etc etc). Just write to them (like I
did) and then go find replacement websites (like I did). When they
loose enogh golshim they will change.
Thank you Dotan!
I do send a notice to every mailform site! But it does not
help... All the banks in Israel do not support standard
DHTML, and I did not find a mapping site that works either!
I still hope to hear an answer weather somebody succeeded in
writing Hebrew....
Best Regards,
Alon Bar-Lev.
