Introduction

The D3 code that handles the GUI bitmap font can only load a specific range of bytes as characters. To get the most out of the available entries, special charsets are used. The fonts (Carleton for the menu f.i.) are build/patched so that the right characters appear in the right place.

Encodings

Note that the language files (f.i. strings/german.lang) as well as the readables and the FM dictionariaries are expected to be in the following encodings:

  • Czech: ISO-8859-2
  • Russian: WIN-1251
  • All other languages: ISO-8859-1

The characters are remapped upon loading the dictionary/readable.

European Languages

This mapping is used for European languages, f.i. Czech, French, German, Spanish, Portuguese, Polish. Note that the double accented characters in Hungarian Ő, ő, Ű and ű look a bit different from Ö, ö, Ü and ü!

In the table below, the original characters are given in () below the TDM character.
