Description Stanislav Brabec 2003-05-29 15:54:28 UTC

Comment 1 Stanislav Brabec 2003-05-29 15:59:55 UTC
In Czech there are often used GNU-Czech localisations of PalmOS 3/4,
which are not working in UTF-8, but use ISO-8859-2 or Windows-1250.

It should be nice to have support for these localisations inside
gnome-pilot, otherwise exported data are not readable there.
Comment 2 Matt Davey 2006-08-28 08:17:00 UTC
At long last, pilot-link 0.12.0 has been released.  With 0.12.0 it should
be possible to set the environment variable PILOT_CHARSET to the ISO-8859-2 and then restart gpilotd.

Now that this functionality is available in the pilot-link library we may
add gui support for selecting the charset in gnome-pilot, but the workaround
should work out of the box.

Note: gnome-pilot 2.0.14 will support pilot-link 0.12.0.  The current gnome-pilot and gnome-pilot-conduits CVS has been ported, but the evolution team have yet to update their conduits (shouldn't take long, a patch is being reviewed)
