Dear Allin You are right. zh_TW is the default language setting for Traditional Chinese in Windows 2000 and XP. I found that my translation of the gretl,po can work in Windows with the font "MS Gothic" without "set LANG=zh_TW" and with the fonts "free mono" or "monospace." in Ubuntu 7.x and 8.x.
It will be very great if you can make the default fixed font under Windows and Ubuntu as I tested above. I am sending you the po file I have now in a separate private mail for the current PO version. It will be good if you can give me the CVS access so I am able to update the file myself for the future. Yi-Nung Yang PS: I also built a simple web page in order to promote the great software "gretl." Thanks for you and others great contributions. http://yaya.it.cycu.edu.tw/gretl/ 2009/1/23 Allin Cottrell <cottrell(a)wfu.edu>: > On Thu, 22 Jan 2009, yinung at Gmail wrote: > >> [D]o the users have to change the fixed font setting themselve >> (as well as to set the environmental variable, set LANG=tw, in >> windows) when they try to use the locale *.mo in order to show >> Traditional Chinese? > > Brief follow-up: Does Windows really use "tw" to indicate > Traditional Chinese?
