[1] Without any patch Japanese characters are 'uncodable'. [2] With your patch Japanese characters are codable. [3] With my patch Japanese characters are codable, but test case lyx file needs to be modified slightly. The patch that you revered my naming convention would work well without the modification. === OS, compiler === Debian etch === LyX === $ svn info URL: svn://svn.lyx.org/lyx/lyx-devel/trunk Revision: 26122 === platex === I used ptetex3, a recent version of platex package which can handle bable: ( http://www.nn.iij4u.or.jp/~tutimura/tex/ptetex.html , http://tutimura.ath.cx/~nob/tex/ptetex/ptetex3/ptetex3-20080616.tar.gz ) based on tetex-texmf-3.0po.tar.gz and tetex-src-3.0.tar.gz . There seems to be pdflatex which can convert Japanese characters in MS Windows ( http://www.fsci.fuk.kindai.ac.jp/kakuto/win32-ptex/web2c75.html ), but I have not tested it.

Now I think the following script is better for latex users: --- configure.py --- if cmdOutput(PLATEX + ' chklatex.ltx').find('pLaTeX2e') != -1: # We have the Japanese pLaTeX2e addToRC(r'\converter japaneseplatex dvi "%s" "latex"' % PLATEX) - LATEX = PLATEX + # LATEX = PLATEX In this case, users who use Japanese as a minor language needs to change settings as follows: LaTeX(plain) -> DVI converter: platex or Document Setting -> Language -> Encoding -> Other:Japanese (pLaTeX, EUC-JP), while Language: english [5] It is noted that Encoding::japanese is a package name becuse --- in Encoding.cpp ------------------ if (p == "japanese-platex") package = Encoding::japanese_platex; ---------------------------------------, However, \selectlanguage uses Encoding::japanese, which is derived from the last column in the file lib/encoding. I prefer that \selectlanguage uses language name used for babel, i.e. the second column in the file lib/language. > Also, I would be interested to know if it works if languages with special > characters (French, German, etc.) are involved? Could you please prepare a LyX file for testing the special characters ? Thank you. Tetsuya Makimura
