Unicode plane 1 in rxft-unicode

[Andrew Pantyukhin]

I wonder if anyone succeeded in getting subj working. The
simplest way to test it is:
 - install a plane one font (e.g. I've just committed code2001)
 - verify it's working in firefox (after a restart)
 - add something like 'xft:Code2001:size=19,xft:' to
   'URxvt*font:' in .Xresources, and merge it with
   xrdb -merge < .Xresources
 - restart rxvt and try to view a text file with the symbols

A good test case is this: http://www.code2000.net/oneplane.htm

Wikipedia title page (with languages) also contains some plane
one symbols.

My rxvt is compiled with --enable-everything (which includes
--enable-unicode3) and with all encodings. Ctrl+Shift+Click shows
code point fffd for plane one characters, but then I've never
seen it show codes over 16 bits.

Thanks!

 Here's another pair to add to the above list, though I don't know whether
you can still find it for sale:

Panasonic KX-P7305 and KX-P7310 [HPGL (IIRC) and PostScript]

These two are essentially identical, except that the KX-P7310 has an ethernet
interface in addition to the USB 2.0 and parallel ports.  It prints somewhere
around 19 ppm in simplex mode, around 17 ppm in duplex, if memory serves me.
(I haven't used mine recently.)  It has a "toner saver" mode that changes black
to a grey matrix useful for stuff you want to read but don't care how nice it
looks.  Toner cartridges are supposed to be good for about 5,000 pages, but I
never got even 4,500 in toner saver mode, so I don't know what Panasonic
measured.  The PostScript interpreter normally does a nice job, but appears to
be incompatible with some applications (e.g., acroread).  The "native" mode is
HPGL or some such, which acroread seems to handle well enough.  One really
irritating thing I noticed quickly is that lpr(1) doesn't support duplex, so
printing stuff on it that would normally go through lpr(1) needed some other
method to get it duplexed.  I think I bought mine in late 2004 from
tigerdirect.com for U.S. $195 less a $70 mail-in rebate, giving a final price
of $125.

It's fine within firefox, but there is a problem with programs in
console mode, like rxft-unicode or mined, or cat. I have checked with
the file available at

and all languages are well displayed, excepted the lines from Bhutan,
Canada - Nunavut, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Georgia and India (Hindi).
Actually, for these languages, it seems that Code2001 is not used, and a
square is displayed with the built-in support font.

Updating the MySQL ODBC Port

[Gerard]

I noticed that there is an updated 'mysql-connector-odbc' file
available. File name:
"mysql-connector-odbc-5.1.4-freebsd6-x86-32bit.tar.tar" available at:
.

I was wondering if this is going to be made available in the ports?
There is presently an older version in the ports tree:
mysql-connector-odbc-unixodbc-mysql50-3.51.12_1, which I believe to be
the unix version. I tried contacting the maintainer of that port:
<[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, however; he never responded to my inquiry.

This is probably one of the bugs that stalks the ports system.
It is possible you got a html text message saying the server was too
busy stored into libxml2-2.6.31.tar.gz; the ports system at present does
not use file to check that the file it has fetched matches what it
was expecting. This is one of the cases where manual intervention is
necessary and you have to remove the file downloaded and try again.

It's not that easy a bug to fix unfortunately.

He has sent me in private, he didn't let CVSup mirror to catch up so he  
doesn't has my change.
