Hello all,
is there any simple way to change the character set of pure data symbols under windows 2000 ? i saw this feature in Cyclone comment object (look at the contents of "comment-ogonki.pd" patch coming with Cyclone: there is a string for setting up an iso8859-2 coding for the comment).
I'd like to change the default coding to Cyrillic but simple replacing of this string to "iso8859-5" makes nothing..
is there any sollution ?
hi Yury,
do not know about your setup, but the version of Tcl coming with Miller's Pd for Windows lacks encoding files, and none of iso8859 encodings is built in (querying for "encoding names" shows just "utf-8 identity unicode" under xp).
You should get iso8859-5.enc file, and put it where Tcl would search for (probably ...\pd\lib\Tcl8.3\encoding).
One remaining problem is how to input non-ascii chars -- currently this has to be done by editing .pd files outside of Pd.
The other problem is setting a proper font for Pd text objects, which is doable but hackish. When done, it should be possible to have "encoding system iso8859-5" in pd.tk.
