Great! Thanks.MU wrote:...
Please download and install again.
then create this textfile:
./root/pbdict2utf8.txt
It must have this line:Code: Select all
zh_CN.utf8
now the dictd server will be forced, to use your chinese UTF8.
Now I can search all the downloaded personal dictionaries, including eng-rus and deu-jap, offline, but only one at a time.
For some reason when I search with "Personal:All" the only words I can find are those in your deu-eng and eng-deu example files. Why is that?
Thanks for the warning. I don't think I'll even go there...MU wrote:I think to input chinese characters, you need scim-bridge.
See the localization forum:

I think this is not trivial, the threads dealing with it, are very long
I'd be happy just to be able to display Chinese characters properly in a browser when I visit Chinese websites. But it looks like that's also beyond Puppy's abilities.
Thanks. Will try to install it together with the latest version of pbdict on the laptop within the next week or so. I still haven't figured out how to use Stardict yet. For instance, can stardict translations be imported into pbdict personal dictionaries?.MU wrote:For Puppy 3, you can extract the dotpup that I attach in /usr/lib/locale/.
It has then en_US.utf8.

I'm also curious - why does Puppy 4.0 include zh_CN.utf8 when there are no Chinese freedict dictionaries for it to display, and the browser isn't capable of displaying Chinese either?
