Short: UReader 0.02 Author: Gilles Pelletier Uploader: gilles pelletier voila fr (Gilles Pelletier) Type: dev/c Version: 0.02 (15-Sep-2011) Requires: Ucode package or ttengine.library package Architecture: m68k-amigaos Introduction ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Unicode is the best way to have a unique code behind each letter of most scripts used by computer industry. With Unicode you can obtain a russian text annoted with english and french with all its accents. Installation ~~~~~~~~~~~~ For ucode.library: Download Ucode.lha and read Ucode.Readme by Ken Shillito before start. Download C_Ucode.lha and copy the includes or copy the includes supplied. Download and install the glyphs, otherwise there will be nothing on the screen. For ttengine.library: Download the package. You need also a unicode true type font. I don't know a complete one, but try the following l_10646.ttf code2000.ttf The program ~~~~~~~~~~~ UReader.c, is a little program able to display unicode files. This C language code builds two executable files UReader using Ucode.library and UReaderTTEngine using ttengine.library and a true type font. Of course, the true type font must have some unicode glyphs to work. Source code is provided in an educational way... UReader Will work on any Amiga with sufficient place on harddisk to install glyphs. You can change the font size and style by using tooltypes in the executable icon. FONTSIZE=11 FONTSTYLE=SS UReaderTTEngine May crash with 68000, depends on the TTEngine compilaton. You can change the fontname and size by using tooltypes in the executable icon. FONTNAME=FONTS:l_10646.ttf FONTSIZE=11 Options between parenthesis are disabled like: (FONTNAME)=FONTS:toto.ttf These options are also valid with project icons. Steps ~~~~~ V0.02 15-Sep-2011 bug fix for 68000 cosmetic changes to animate the mouse pointer during rendering V0.01 20-Oct-2008 first release. 01-Sep-2008 start. Notes ~~~~~ Ucode.library is wrotten in assembly, and works fine on my A2000 68000 at 7.14MHz, and 25Mo of glyphs on the harddisk. Thanks Ken Shillito for this fantastic piece of code! Enjoy Unicode on Amiga Classic.!
