Hi, xmms is the last software left where I have to read hebrew backwards. I'm waiting for the gtk2 port for quite a long time and it won't go out, but apparently I'm not alone. Beep Media Player (BMP in short) is a fork from the xmms tree which already implements gtk2, and works pretty fine (with few bugs still, it's a beta).
However.. I still cannot see my hebrew songs well: because now with gtk2/pango, it expects filenames/id3 in the unicode format, which I don't use (I assume most of us don't). I want to suggest the BMP team to add an option 'no unicode filenames'. I just don't know gtk2/pango too well and I'm not sure whether that's exactly what they should add in order to make us happy.. I assume they just have to use some iso8859-8->utf-8 converting function (because if we want pango to render it fine, with bidi, it should convert the non-unicode text to unicode). Anybody has something smart to say? - Oren ================================================================= To unsubscribe, send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with the word "unsubscribe" in the message body, e.g., run the command echo unsubscribe | mail [EMAIL PROTECTED]
