I have compiled a Cygwin version of LyX/Qt4 using the native GUI (no X11) and now I see the chinese characters mentioned by Abdel when I load an old document. I also get a lot of messages on the console:
Error returned from iconv EILSEQ An invalid multibyte sequence has been encountered in the input. When converting from UCS-4 to UCS-2. Input: 0xff 0xff 0xff 0xa2 This was not the case with Qt3 where the characters were simply hollow squares on screen. However, when I start a new document the characters are shown correctly. LyX also crashes when quitting, but I don't know if this is related to the patches I applied to Qt4 or if it is a LyX problem. Anyway, all Qt4 examples compile and run just fine. -- Enrico
