Hi,
I have to say sorry that I'm too busy to follow
all threads of CJK support.
I just checkout the latest CVS Abi and build for testing.
After add the appropriate fonts.dir to fonts/zh-TW,
I CAN input, display, print Chinese in Abiword (in zh_TW.Big5 locale).
Loosely speaking, the CJK support of the current CVS
is at least as good as HJ's patch. That's great!
I also tried the zh_CN.GB2312 locale, the problem still there.
I can input but the character didn't display.
Vlad has mentioned this should be fixed by changing
gdk_font_load() to gdk_fontset_load() in gr_UnixGraphics.cpp.
I notice it is not in the current CVS, so I get Vald's
next-cjk-patch.diff and tried to apply it, but failed.
There are many rejects. So, Vlad, could you provide a
clean patch against the current CVS? Thanks!!
I have also tried the RTF export. I open the exported RTF
by MSWord97, but Chinese character didn't display. It messed up.
Copy & paste for Chinese didn't work, either. (between rxvt 2.7.3 & abi)
I made a screenshot to demo the Chinese support of the
current CVS Abi:

Thanks for your great work!!
