Composing characters

2003-03-11 Thread Marcus Lundblad
I started hacking in FBidiJoin.c to add the support for composing characters. But it seems shape_n_join() isn't called. configure reports FriBidi is used and I think I tried Arabic joining within FVWM some time ago. Or is it that stderr isn't output as expected? (I added fprintf to stderr as

Re: Composing characters

2003-03-11 Thread Marcus Lundblad
Are you sure you use an Arabic locale or text encoding? shape_n_join is only called from FBidiConvert which in turn is only called for bidi-requiring (i.e. right-to-left) encodings, see FlocaleCharsetTable in FlocaleCharset.c. OK, I see. I guess I'll take out this code from the BIDI stuff.

Re: Composing characters within fvwm

2003-03-08 Thread Marcus Lundblad
So if I well understand, FBidiJoint.c should be updated to handle some composing char. Nadim can you send a patch? An other issue is that FBidiJoint has nothing to do with bidi and it should be use even if libfribidi is not detected? I think the way to go is this: First map all characters

Maybe. Does a composing_char + a_given_char = another_given_char in UTF-8 or USC-2? If yes and a table can be found somewhere we can add an other converter (as FBidiJoint.c). If not we should draw string char by char and take care of these composing characters (I do not like so much this

Olivier, I don't think its another_given_char that needs to be produced. What needs to happen (per what unicode notes and what I've seen) is to super-impose the second character on _top_ of the first -- that's why those characters (including 'umlaut') have a dashed/dotted circle within their

Is the bug about combining characters in todo-2.6 really a bug? Is it supposed to work automatically. Is this supposed to be handled by the X-calls that are used? Wouldn't this have to be handled in the code (or a library used). I think Pango should be used for this, but it seems like a larger

Hi. The way I see it, there is currently no way to turn off these horizontal lines that are drawn on the title bars of sticky windows. They are mostly useless if you use a titlebar button to stick/unstick (+mwm hints), and sometimes simply look bad, especially on a textured titlebar. Would

Visually distinct sticky vs. slippery windows is one of the nice features we got when we changed from fvwm95 to fvwm2. The ribbed look is a plus - it's a good visual discriminator for our users, even for the Pager. A new Style/Titlestyle is fine, but my vote is to keep the ribs as the

Is there some good way (from a shell script) to determine if a window is iconified? I'm writing tests for the new Closable, Maximizable etc. styles. xwininfo gives the geometry of the windows normal size, so there is no difference when iconifiying. I guess an alternative is to have an
