- Unicode support extended to all controls. Existing applications
turn into multi-lingual unicode application by inserting one line
of code in the Main function
FW_SetUnicode( .t. )
This being a major revision, we request the users to provide
feedback to help improvements.
-
It is the ulitmate aim that a single application can simultaneously
have different ANSI and Unicode windows at the sametime and also
one window/dialog to contain some Ansi and some Unicode controls.
But for now it is desirable to have the entire application either as
Ansi or as Unicode. However even in a Unicode application, every effort
has been makde to maintain full backward compatibility of Ansi text
opetaions including accented characters. Any feedback on this aspect
will be highly appreciated and promptly responded. -
Fix: Edit.prg: fixed excess release of font when font clause is used.
-
Enhancement: Unicode support for common messageboxesm MsgInfo(),
MsgAlert(), MsgStop(), MsgYesNo(), MsgNoYes(), MsgRetryCancel(),

language installed. -

is set to TRUE. -
