Metapad unicode support. Needs testing.
Posted: Thu Jun 20, 2013 7:43 am
Hi, as some might know, I'm currently kind of working on Metapad's codebase. I read Unicode was a wanted feature, and found out there was an (incomplete) support for it. I think I completed it, but I need some testing. It works for me, but my language doesn't exactly make intensive use of non-ANSI characters, so I want (if possible) that someone with a more non-english characters use to test it. This is the lite build (edit control) with Unicode support. Please, note that the encoding conversion options were never completed, and don't work (I didn't try to make them work, yet, and I plan to make all the fancy features optional at build time). This should only make available unicode. Any testing helps (just tell me if something doesn't work correctly), be it on ReactOS or Windows. If someone wants to test it on ReactOS, please try the copy-paste feature, that was failing on ReactOS in the Rich Edit version (which copy-paste method is used for Unicode builds).

Download the build here:
Lite Edition
Rich Edit
NOTE: I forgot to strip debug information, so the release builds are actually smaller than they weight in the links.
NOTE2: Please try tabulation. On WINE, I noticed it's at least twice the size it's supposed to be (detects correctly the number of characters it takes, but it's wider), on all build, but I think this might actually be a problem on WINE.
