Title: Languages other than English
Post by: Andy on September 07, 2014, 05:06:09 AM
Hi,

I've found a way to display dialogs in Greek.

This is how I do it:

1. Use the older Ebasic editor to enter the Greek text (on a Greek Windows platform - XP).
2. Copy and Paste the dialog into IWbasic editor
3. Compile and it works.

So my questions are:

Why does the IWbasic editor not support direct Greek characters whilst the old Ebasic editor does?

And when I try the same approach on an English based windows platform does the above not work?

I'm translating a program into Greek and as you can see I have a work around, but it would be easier
on an English based pc.

Regards,
Andy.

Let me see why it dropped and if I can add it back.
May take me a bit - my to-do list is huge.
