[plt-scheme] DrScheme font combobox
Hi,
I'm using DrScheme v299.100 on Windows 2000.
It appears that [Font] combobox of [Edit]-[Presference] menu
shows Japanese font names garbled.
How can I fix this problem ?
Is this a problem of MrEd or undelying wx widgets ?
I guess the following source code is suspicious:
-------------------- plt/collects/mred/private/gdi.ss
(define (look-for-font name)
(if (ormap (lambda (n) (string-ci=? name n)) (wx:get-face-list))
name
"MS San Serif"))
...
[(windows)
(case family
[(system)
(unless mswin-system
(set! mswin-system (look-for-font "Tahoma")))
mswin-system]
[(default)
(unless mswin-default
(set! mswin-default (look-for-font "Microsoft Sans Serif")))
mswin-default]
[(default) "MS Sans Serif"]
[(roman) "Times New Roman"]
[(decorative) "Arial"]
[(modern) "Courier New"]
[(swiss) "Arial"]
[(script) "Arial"]
[(symbol) "Symbol"])]
--------------------
or
-------------------- plt/src/wxcommon/FontDirectory.cxx
#ifdef wx_msw
"ScreenSystem__", "MS Sans Serif", /* maybe changed by Adjust */
"ScreenDefault__", "MS Sans Serif", /* maybe changed by Adjust */
"ScreenRoman__", "Times New Roman",
"ScreenDecorative__", "Arial",
"ScreenModern__", "Courier New",
"ScreenTeletype__", "${ScreenModern$[weight];$[style]}",
"ScreenSwiss__", "Arial",
"ScreenScript__", "Arial",
"ScreenSymbol__", "Symbol",
#endif
--------------------
It seems DrScheme default font is intended only for
English or non-Asian environment.
"MS UI Gothic" can display Japanese characters correctly.
I hope this is a default font, or any machanism to set default font
for each natural language through, say, string-constants module.
