I have experimented a bit with the Japanese messages in CDE.Using the
script below, I have converted
the .msg files and copied them to /usr/dt/lib/nls/msg/ja_JP.eucjp.
#!/bin/sh
# generates .cat files from a set of .msg files
for i in *.msg; do
LANG=ja_JP.eucjp gencat -o `basename $i .msg`.cat $i;
# echo `basename $i .msg`.cat $i;
done
sudo cp *.cat /usr/dt/lib/nls/msg/ja_JP.eucjp
Then, I have modifed the .dtprofile by adding
xset fp+ /usr/dt/config/xfonts/ja_JP/
export LANG=ja_JP.eucjp
The result is attached. The Kanji and Katakana characters are displayed
correctly, and dtcm shows
the date in japanese. However, it is important to pass the correct LANG
variable (the japanese locale being installed) to gencat in the script
to produce correct .cat messages.
I expect the message catalog can be similarly translated for Korean or
Chinese language, but the font aliases for CDE are not present, so they
may not display correctly.
