How to Install
==============
Prerequisites:
--needed: gcc-2.96 or better http://gcc.gnu.org/
--needed: gmake 3.75 or greater ftp://prep.ai.mit.edu/
--needed: X11R5 or greater (www.xfree86.org)
--recommended gettext 0.10 or better for multi-language message support
From version-2.4.8 it is only needed when making your own messages.
Reading gettext generated files are internally supported.
--optional: a lot of True Type fonts are available for free:
From www.microsoft.com you can get gulim (Hangul), msgothic (Japanese) for IE.
From www.bitstream.com you can get cyberbit that contains a lot of glyphs.
From ftp://ftp.cs.indiana.edu/pub/fidel/fonts/
you can get Ethiopic fonts (gfzemenu).
--recommended:
Several UCS fonts:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/ucs-fonts.html
Unifont:
http://www.czyborra.com/unifont/
--recommened literature:
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html
Installation Process
====================
Linux:
1. configure --prefix=/usr/local
2. make
3. make install
Solaris:
1. configure --prefix=/opt/Misc
2. make
3. make install
FreeBSD:
1. ./configure --prefix=/usr/local
2. gmake
3. gmake install
Windows:
1. run setup.exe
2. install into a directory, like:
C:\Yudit
* Good to know: if you don't have setup.exe or you want to move
yudit manually to another directory you just need mytool to
change installdir:
C:\NewInstallBaseDir\bin\mytool -installdir "C:\NewInstallBaseDir"
3. install ghostview from, for instance, http://www.ghostgum.com.au/
into, like:
C:\Ghostgum
4. If you install ghostview into any other directory, modify
%HOME%\.yudit\yudit.properties
and
C:\Yudit\config\yudit.properties
* Note: there is an editor that can edit unix files called yudit :)
yudit C:/Yudit/config/yudit.properties
and set yudit.default.preview.command to the command to execute:
yudit.default.preview.command="C:/Ghostgum/gsview/gsview32.exe"
5. If you don't have HOME environment set, Yudit will use C:\HOME
How to make an rpm package form Yudit sources
=============================================
1. rpm -tb yudit-2.8.1.tar.gz
or if it does not work:
rpmbuild -tb yudit-2.8.1.tar.gz
This will tell you where to put the compresed source code.Put it there.
Most likely:
Suse: /usr/src/packages/SOURCES/yudit-2.8.1.tar.gz
or
Redhat: /usr/src/redhat/SOURCES/yudit-2.8.1.tar.gz
2. rpm -i [binary rpm]
Does the GUI speak my language?
==============================
Yudit menus can be displayed in several languages.
In ~/.yudit/yudit.properties file you can specify:
yudit.default.language=language_code
The following languages are supported:

If you specify
yudit.default.language=default
The environment variable LANG will be used to determine the
language. Use this option sparingly - it is not guaranteed that
the font is available.
If your language does not appear properly, you might need to
change
yudit.default.font=default
to
yudit.default.font=MyVirtualFont
The default font is internally defined in swindow/SFont.ttf as:
"yudit.hex,arabforms.hex,syriacforms.hex,unifont.hex,"
"markus9x18.bdf,markus18x18ja.bdf,"
"-*-*-medium-r-normal--16-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1,"
"-*-*-*-*-*--16-*-*-*-c-*-iso8859-1,"
"THOOLIUC.TTF:mlym,"
"ani.ttf:beng,"
"pothana2000.ttf:telu,"
"TCRCYoutsoUnicode.ttf:tibt,"
"raghu.ttf:deva,"
"mangal.ttf:deva,tunga.ttf:knda,code2000.ttf:taml,"
"raavi.ttf:guru,shruti.ttf:gujr,"
"arialuni.ttf,cyberbit.ttf,"
"code2000.ttf,code2001.ttf:unicode:RL,arial.ttf,"
"yudit.ttf"
How to translate yudit messages to my language
==============================================
1. cd gui
2. mkdir -p locale/country_and_variant/LC_MESSAGES/
3. make messages
4. yudit -e utf-8 locale/country_and_variant/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
5. make messages
6. make install
7. mail -s locale/country_and_variant \
gaspar@yudit.org < locale/country_and_variant/LC_MESSAGES/messages.po
8. add
yudit.default.language=country_and_variant
to ~/.yudit/yudit.properties
you may want to add:
yudit.default.font=yourfont
yudit.default.fontsize=yourfontsize
A good result can be achieved if you download and install the
http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/download/ucs-fonts.tar.gz
- mkdir x11fonts (or re-use .yudit/fonts)
- cd x11fonts
- wget http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/download/ucs-fonts.tar.gz
- tar xfz ucs-fonts.tar.gz
- xset fp+ ~/x11fonts
- (optional) put the line above into ~/.Xinitrc
- change ~/.yudit/yudit.properties
yudit.default.font=Misc
yudit.default.fontsze=15
9. Sometimes you may have a translation but it does not appear.
Possible and not obvious reasons:
- if the original message has \n at the end the translation should
have it too.
- if you see the fuzzy keyword in a comment preceeding the message
it won't be included. Remove the fuzzy comment.
Japanese Input
==============
If you have built the Motif version you can also use Kinput2 to input Japanese.
If you want to use free packages and you have an English environment
you need to do the following:
o Get a conversion server, 'canna' from X11 contrib directory.
This server can be built in Linux. It is usually started when the machine
boots and keeps running. Make sure it uses its own wide text library.
No Japanese environment is needed.
o Get a 'kinput2' X front-end for X11 from the same place you got canna.
If you do not have Japanese environment, make sure it links with libcanna16.
Kinput is started after X in .xinitrc and it provides the input windows
for the applications.
The current version of kinput2 has a bug - it thinks that long is 32 bit,
which is true on a pentium machine. On an alpha machine you should make
sure you have a version number set to less than 2.02 in your .yuditrc so
that yudit knows that it should deal with a buggy kinput2. If you have a
value of zero, yudit tries to determine the version number itself.
Hangul Input
============
Yudit comes with kmap files for Roman transliteration, 2-set and 3-set
keyboards. I expect yudit to improve on this area.
Adding New Mappings
===================
Please read the man page for mytool. FAQ.TXT also has some information.
For clues on how to create an Handwriting input please read the
mytool/hwd/hiragana.hwd utf-8 encoded file, or the same file in
/usr/share/yudit/data/hiragana.hwd.
Undocumented Features
=====================
There is a Yudit command-area command
configure
that brings up the configuration file.
When the configuration file is edited, Yudit will not save
the current settings when it exits, so that you can save
the config file safely. (Unless another editor session is
running...)
This is documented: you should know that you can use
the keyboard maps as text converters. So you convert a
Devanagari transliterated text into unicode like this:
uniconv -decode Devanagari < in_itrans.txt > out_utf8.txt
There are many converters for ISCII character conversion
written by Anirban Mitra <mitra_anirban@yahoo.co.in> and
included in this Yudit package. They all start with IS_.
There is a plan to make a more extensive documentation but
there are too many features and not enough time :)
