: Hi,
: I'm using the lynx web browser and must select the language font I
: want to display (besides English) one at a time. :( This isn't nice
: ,especially if one wants to view russian, hebrew, chinese/japan/korean,
: arabic .... all on the console screen at once, and be different for each
: virtual console. I've compiled into the kernel, support for all the code
: pages and NLS support - unicode support isn't selectable.
:
this concerns only filesystem and has nothing to do with the console
:
: Is there anyway that future linux kernels will display more than one
: foreign font on the console and virtual console at the same
: time? I realize that Xwindows and other such GUI s/w pkgs can display
: them, but I'd like to see the console do it too.
check out dynafont (part of fonty package):
http://qrczak.ids.net.pl/programy/linux/fonty/
it is a wrapper around program which dynamically loads needed fonts as
they are sent to the output
Although I tried it only once and was not able to make it work quite
satisfactory :-)
