Off? [gtk] accented characters under windows

#1

Hi!

I’ve just noticed, that any menu, which contains accented characters,
won’t be displayed. (ruby 1.6.6) Is it gtk or ruby-specific?

If you use “GTK+ and GIMP for Windows(http://www.gimp.org/~tml/gimp/win32/)”,
you might need to use strings in UTF-8.

Hope this helps.

May I ask how to do it (in ruby)?

Three of the followings are recommended.

  1. You write your codes in UTF-8.(though I’ve never tried.)
  2. use Iconv module(see RAA).

If you use strings only in static menus/messages,
I recommend you to use Ruby-GetText-Package(see RAA)
(This package require Iconv module too).
Because if you use it, your application can support L10n easily.

Cheers.

Oops, it is two not three.
#Ruby-GetText-Package is not same purpose.
