Re: libBIG5.a modules in X?
Hi all,
Well, after a little bit of struggle. I seemed to get things working
reasonably well. I used xtt module, instead of freetype module in X4.1
and LANG=en_CA and LC_CTYPE=zh_TW.big5. But it seems like it can't
display some of the character (some are numbers, some are chinese
, some are mixed chinese and english) Anyone knows what's happening?
