Re: Hebrew samba, console and konqueror

mkisofs known how to convert them to UTF-16 from yourcurrent locale, I
believe. Try simply using mkisofs -r -J -quiet


Well I have managed to move my files to UTF-8.
Then I did:
mkisofs -o file.iso -R -J /hebrew/files/dir
Then burnt it.
Loading it in windows, I see Gibrish.
It seems that mkisofs didn't convert the file names from UTF-8 to UTF-16 good.

 Hi,
 I want to open rar archive that has files in Hebrew (copied from windows).
 I set my konsole to 'unicode_start' and 'export LANG=he_IL'.

is he_IL UTF-8?

Yes, by default in gentoo it will use UTF-8


 Opening the archive, I can see at the console the names of the files in
 Hebrew.
 The problem is when I try to see the files from konqueror.
 How can I see the files in konqueror? Should I convert them to another
 encoding?

 Is there a way to know what is the encoding of the files, and then
 convert them to utf8? (Tried with 'tr' but there is a problem with the
 size of one char encoding. Also used 'ls -Q'  and 'od' to see the
 actual bytes).

You can script the process using something of the sort of:

mv $filename `echo $filename| iconv -f cp1255`

I recall someone mentioned in the list an existing script that does exactly that
converion.


 I also want to burn the files on a cd that windows users can see.
 So what encoding should I use when preparing the ISO image?

Is UTF-16 is the encoding for windows?

Actually, in Debian all you need to do is reinstall locale and enable
hebrew.
Does anyone knows a good console font ? Mine is ugly like hell :0)

 Yes, without fb, with LatArCyrHeb font and UTF-8 locale (after
 unicode_start).

 The nice part I discovered today is that this is configured and works
 out of the box on Fedora Core 1 (if you select hebrew in the list of
 supported languages).  There *is* progress in UTF-8 acceptance...

 hello, people.
 i have a question:

 i have loaded the proper kmap.gz,
 and the proper font.
 the problem is:
 some characters are not displayed properly.
 this is driving me nuts.
 (as if the map is not correct or is only partially loaded)

 any suggestions ?
 specs: woody.
 Thanx.
 Max.

Two options:

1. set your locale to a UTF one (e.g: he_IL.UTF-8) and set the console
font to LatArCyrHeb-16

2. If you use an 8-bit locale, then stick with 8-bit fonts:

  consolechars -f iso08.f16 -m iso08

That is: translations (acm): iso08, font: iso08.f16

See the IGLU FAQ for more information (and how to set this at boot time)

What character? are you missing a kuf? if you do then it's not just me
and it's a bug in the package.
