  !Pluto and cyrillic input         


Author: Paul Sprangers

Dear all,

This may either have been covered before, or just being a silly question
anyway, but since I discovered today how easy it is to send cyrillic
e-mails on a Windows computer, I wonder if this might be possible on RISC
OS as well - with a little more effort.

When I examine the cyrillic mail in !Zap, all the Russian characters are
represented by question marks (&3F). Miraculously, when viewed in NetSurf,
they turn into readable Russian!

What I would like to achieve, is typing cyrillic characters directly into a
!Pluto window, and have the guarantee that the receiver will be able to
read the mail directly.

Probably, I can write the necessary keyboard driver myself, but what else
should be done - if it can be done in the first place?

Kind regards,
Paul Sprangers
