Hi,

There are new versions of YAM available which now have better charset support but only developer versions which expire after some time. They also have these warning requesters on startup.

Could anyone compile a non expire version like the one from 4.10.2004 2.5-dev?

The one I tried is from 27.02.2006 2.5-dev. from http://www.yam.ch/latest-dev

This would be great!

Regards

Christoph

Unfortunately morphos doesn't support charsets... Diskfont in morphos is also from 8 bit systems...

Quote:

Ofcourse MorphOS supports charsets, even AOS3.x does, that is, only by using the bullet engine (ttf/ft2), bitmap fonts are naturally locked into a specific charset...

If you access these engines directly you can get any unicode glyph you want (provided the font has it), diskfont however will only load 256 glyphs, defaulting to the latin1 charset, however you can change this behaviour by filling the ttfcodepage/ftcodepage envvar with the appropriate codepage array, and it'll default to that when extracting glyphs from these engines.

No clue what that's supposed to mean even. :P

@ Framiga

Yes I know! I doenloaded this version yesterday already but it hase these warning requesters and the timeout that's why I was asking if someone could compile a version without that, one which start just nrmally and no timeout.

to get rid of the Beta requester type in a shell:

setenv I_KNOW_YAM_IS_UNDER_DEVELOPMENT 1

And after, if you want to save it, don't forget to type in a shell :

copy env:I_KNOW_YAM_IS_UNDER_DEVELOPMENT envarc:

Or, directly type:

setenv I_KNOW_YAM_IS_UNDER_DEVELOPMENT SAVE 1
