Russian fonts in terminal application

I cannot get terminal to print Russian fonts when I switch to the Russian language. I get the UTF-8 codes instead of the cyrillic characters. If I hit enter after typing a string of codes the terminal then prints the codes in cyrillic and displays an unrecognized command message. I'm using SWI-Prolog and I need to have the terminal display Russian characters. There is no choice for Russian in the terminal settings -- there are Chinese and Korean setttings. Help would be invaluable, since I now have to run Linux to get the terminal behavior I need. If Linux can do it, Mac must also be able to!

Best ask this in the Unix forum:

How to use Russian fonts?

Hello everybody!
Is there any change to use russian fonts in Labview 7. I am using Windows XP+SP1. I know that it's possible, somehow, but not managed to solve problem yet.
Neuvos

I have successfully used Russian Fonts in LV 7. There are two ways to go about this. The first way is to use an ini or config file to do the conversion for you. This way you can type russian into the file and read in the proper strings. The second way is to take the integer value of the character and type cast it to a string. You must have the russian font installed first before this will work. My example used the alphabet and converted it to Russian. I used the ER Univers 1251 font and used a for loop that will run 32 times and added the iteration terminal with the value of 192 for lower case and type cased each value into a string from an integer. For upper case letters add the iteration terminal with 224. This will display the Russian Alphabet. Hope this h
elps.

Russian font displays as ????

Hi,
I am using Microsoft Exchange web mail. When i start using mac, all russian names and subjects in the browser is shown as ???.
I don't have this problem when i am using windows with IE.
What should i do to see correct russian font in by web-mail in Safari.

HI,
Web based mail... that's the problem. Apple has no control over the fonts they use, especially for a Microsoft based e-mail client.
Keep in mind altering or modifying your fonts in the FontBook application stored in your Applications folder can result in Safari crashing.
You could try this. From the Safari Menu Bar click Safari/Preferences then select the Advanced tab. Select the box next to: Enable Show Develop menu in menu bar.
Now from the Safari Menu Bar click Develop / User Agent. Try Internet Explorer version 8, 7, or 6.
Note.. when you relaunch Safari it will default back to Safari 5.
No guarantee that will work but worth a try.

Fonts in terminal emulators (terminal from xfce)

I always have problems with fonts in terminal emulators, because I can never choose good one.
Now I found perfect terminal emulator, it's called Terminal.
I have Arch on three computers at home - two workstations and one server.
On one workstation I am able to use "Luxi Mono" font in Terminal.
On another workstation there is no such font available in Terminal (but it is in xfontsel), and all other fonts sux.
I found this font in /usr/share/fonts/Type1/fonts.cache-1. This file is available on both workstations and /usr/share/fonts/Type1 is in both xorg.conf.
Do you have any tips how to enable more fonts in Terminal? Do you have any favourite terminal emulator font which looks good and has iso-8859-2 encoding?

Jacek Poplawski wrote:It is strange, but I changed it to "no" and now Luxi Mono works
On my computer is strange because when I change no to yes and than again to no, "no" doesn't works anymore.

[Solved] subtle wm launching terminal application in different view

Hello I'm trying to launch a terminal application in a different view from the other terminal windows I added the following to subtle.rb:
grab "S-W-i", "urxvt -e alsamixer"
tag "chat" do
match "alsamixer"

end
and I dunno, I just don't have a clue on what else I could need to do.

Try launching the grab with the name option for urxvt:
urxvt -name centerim -e centerim
Forgot to mention that in my previous post...
Alright now centerim is only on one view however all other urxvt terminal also spawn in that view.
Edit: solved it, should've just removed the :class urxvt thingy. Thanks!

Russian Font Problem

I have installed Russian fonts on my IBM PC, but the characters are displayed as jibberish. The Russian language option does not appear in the Paragraph Designer > Language drop down menu. How do I resolve this issue? I am using FrameMaker 9. Thanks for any advice.

FM displays the languages available using the appropriate language specific glyphs. For Russian use "русский" :
Can you be specific by what you mean about the characters being jibberish? Which font are you using? What keyboard input method is being used? Can you read Russian in order to determine if the entries are correct?

Printing output incorrect with non Russian fonts

I have tried all the ways with approximate all the device types.
We are getting the correct print preview of spool requests in SAP with Russian Fonts, It means that SAP is doing it work, but the printing output is wrong.
The device types (eg. HPUTF8, HPLJ5, ZPC2424S) are printing correctly with other Printers like RU03, RU02, RU05 but not with RU07.
We have tried many windows drivers as well which were suggested by SAP.
I have tried the below device types as well which are cyrillic compatible. For these device types print preview is coming fine but not printout.
Cyrillic |   I5SPOST     | Dfnlatin (note 83502)
SAPWIN5     | Cyrillic, e.g. RU |    Yes
Below fonts are suitable for a given languages including Russian:.
* ISO 8859-5 (Cyrillic) ************ *******
BG, RU, SR, UK          COURCYR, HELVCYR, TIMECYR
While printing on
RU07 the font should be only above ones not the FC OCRA.   FCTIMECYR 080 00060XSF201SF201410 200040R
FCOCRA 120 00144 SF301SF301400100144 R
Kindly suggest if any particular setting like device type, symbol set, printer driver suitable for this printer to print output correctly.
Regards
Munish

This is normal printer HP laserjet p2055 dn printer.
RU03, RU06, RU07 are sap printer names in ECC system.
SAPSPrint server has names like mospr03, mospr06, mospr07.
SAP is using access method S and pointing to host printer drivers like mospr07 in sapsprint windows server.
It seems that either the printer driver on windows is incorrect in terms of printing from sap or there may be font problem in physical printer.

I don't have a font called terminal in my /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts/ but
having Tamsyn there and in the fonts/local means I can use it in TTY and X.
No that doesn't seem to work, it looks like they are a different format (PSF versus PCF).
There is this for converting PCF to PSF: http://unix.stackexchange.com/a/21144 (courtesy of...)
So we should need a utility to do the opposite i guess.
As always, there are a couple of steps:
You can use psftools to convert from .psf to .bdf, and from there to .pcf
...in theory, anyway
Both tools are helpfully available

Default settings file for Terminal Application?

Hello,
As in other Unixes /etc/bashrc or ~/.bashrc seem to contain the default settings for the Terminal Application.
But i was looking for the config file where i can set the default keyboard or keymapping for the Terminal Application?
The "Desktop-Keyboard/Keymapping" is ok , but in the Terminal several keys don´t work correctly. I need to ssh into another machine but the users password can´t be written correctly as of errors with keymapping so i can´t login into the other box.
Thanks for infos,

Then, check ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.Terminal.plist, using:
defaults read com.apple.Terminal
in the Terminal. Look especially at the KeyBindings entries. Use the Property List Editor that comes with the XCode Tools to change/modify those to suit your needs.

Small unreadable fonts in several applications

I recently installed Adobe Reader 8 for Mac OS X 10.5.
When I tried to activate the Adobe Reader "search document"
feature, the new search page that popped up had a font so small
that I could not read any of the text. All text appeared to be
fuzzy small lines. I invoked "Preferences" for the Adobe
Reader app, and the Preferences page that popped up had fonts
so small again I could not read them and make any changes.
Today I fired up MySQL Query Browser which was working well
under Mac OS X 10.4. The font in the "Schemas" tab is so small
I can not read the entries.
I've been searching the web and forums but have not had any luck
finding a fix. Has anyone else encountered this problem of
extremely small fonts in various applications after upgrading
to OS X 10.5?
Thanks for any guidance on how to fix this.

What you want to do is type about:config in the URL, then dialog in the filter window. Change the entry print.use_native_file_dialog to false. That's worked for me for the 2.x swiftfox versions.
I have not been able to get the 3.x betas to work, however, and the font problem is all over in those versions - menus and the main window both. It makes the browser unusable to me. I think that the whole font problem relates to the pango (lib32-pango) library somehow, but haven't had the time to track it down to know for sure.
Hope that you can at least the 2.x version working - good luck!

[Pretty much solved] i3 - how can I run terminal application?

Hi everyone. I am newbie at tilling window managers, and I decided to give a try for i3.
Now I faced one problem and I cannot find a solution. for example, I want to run "yaourt-gui", which is terminal application. but when I run dmenu, I choose "yaourt-gui" and when I open it - nothing happens. I believe that i3 somehow uses different terminal which doesn't exist, despite I set terminal to be "terminology" in config file. (I can start terminal with shortcut without any problems.)
If you haven't got the idea - all I want when I run app from dmenu is to run it as terminal -e app, but not just app, which has no GUI.
any ideas?

You'll either need to type "terminology -e whatever" in dmenu, or hack dmenu to detect which programs need a terminal. Dmenu does not do this on it's own - it just runs what you tell it to.
There are instructions in the dmenu hacking thread to do exactly this.
The simplest way if it is only for this one program, just make a script or alias with the following:
terminology -e /usr/bin/whatever
Thanks. You are great.

Backup your user file folders to a external drive and disconnect.
Make sure you have a stable, reliable, fast Internet connection, use Ethernet cable if possible.
Hold Command R and boot from the Lion Recovery Partition, get online in the upper right corner, reinstall Lion, it will simply install Lion again and your bundled programs without touching your files or most all third party programs.
