Problems displaying Hangul (Korean)
The following is shown by J6.02 on a laptop running Windows XP with East Asian language support enabled (⌷ represents the rectangular character produced e.g. by 12{a.):
NB. text pasted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hangul shows some Hangul OK '4 simple iotized vowel letters (semi consonant-semi vowel): ㅑ, ㅕ, ㅛ, ㅠ, plus obsolete ᆜ, ᆝ,' 4 simple iotized vowel letters (semi consonant-semi vowel): ⌷, ⌷, ⌷, ⌷, plus obsolete ᆜ, ᆝ, NB. text pasted from http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Go_players shows simplified Chinese OK B=: 'Cho Chikun (조치훈 ; 趙治勳)' B Cho Chikun (⌷⌷⌷ ; 趙治勳)
This seems to be a J display problem as when I copy & paste the output 'Cho Chikun (⌷⌷⌷ ; 趙治勳)' into the BabelPad text editor, it appears as 'Cho Chikun (조치훈 ; 趙治勳)'.
I'm new to unicode, so all suggestions welcome, and sorry if I've overlooked something obvious. -- EwartShaw 2009-09-20 14:42:33
This may be a problem with a particular fonts. Try a different font. J on Mac shows '조치훈 ; 趙治勳' OK. -- OlegKobchenko 2009-09-20 17:20:55
Thanks Oleg - it is a font problem. I'm now using the GNU unifont (http://unifoundry.com/unifont.html) and temporarily changing the configuration to another unicode font when the hangul (etc.) is hard to read. -- EwartShaw 2009-09-21 12:05:14
