In xforms it is possible to change the character set of the GUI independently of the language, but this doesn't seem to be the case in Qt, unless I'm missing something. For example, I write classroom materials, administrative stuff etc. in English, but frequently have to insert Turkish names, so in older versions I would set the lnguage as English but set the encoding as iso-8859-9. As far as I can see, in 1.3.0-qt, I can set the font but not the charset.

The document text is shown using a unicode font, so you don't need to mess
with font encodings: if you have iso10646-1 fonts, LyX will be able to show
any language that you can input.

The text in menus/dialogs is shown using an 8-bit encoding.
You can control which encoding is used by setting the LANG environment
variable (in the future, it will also be unicode).


OK - got it. It's only a problem with documents I wrote on the xforms version, but hell, I can live with that.
