Affects: gedit (Ubuntu) Severity: Normal Priority: (none set) Status: Unconfirmed Description: Gedit dosen't support Japanese major character encodings - EUC-JP, Shift-JIS and ISO-2022-JP, so Japanese users often face garbled characters on gedit. If a users select "Japanese" on installer, it's good to make gedit detect these character encodings to ensure out-of- the-box support for Japanese. With following commands, gedit supports these encodings. gconftool-2 -s /apps/gedit-2/preferences/encodings/auto_detected --type=list --list-type=string '[UTF-8,EUC-JP,SHIFT_JIS,ISO-2022-JP,CURRENT,ISO-8859-15]' gconftool-2 -s /apps/gedit-2/preferences/encodings/shown_in_menu --type=list --list-type=string '[UTF-8,EUC-JP,SHIFT_JIS,ISO-2022-JP]' -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
