Will OpenGD77 support support Unicode display in the future?

Nope. There is no space to support multibyte encoding.

Hi Roger and Daniel!

Thanks for a fantastic job with Open GD-77, it has improved usage incredibly much.

I just checked the alphabet, I guess we have all the glyphs.
Sure, send us the text (header file for the firmware), and a wordlist (for the voice prompts).

If you don't have the source files, you can grab the english.h there (you should use ISO-8859 or UTF-8 encoding (under Windows, notepad++ is doing a good job),
For the voiceprompts, grab and translate the English wordlist, available here (UTF-8 encoded).



Cheers.

Hi again!

I'm done with the Translation now.

The ANSI_swedish.h. It was described in the file that it must not be saved as UTF-8 (If that is wrong, tel me and i make another copy)
/********************************************************************

* VERY IMPORTANT.
* This file should not be saved with UTF-8 encoding
* Use Notepad++ on Windows with ANSI encoding
* or emacs on Linux with windows-1252-unix encoding

********************************************************************/
And the UTF-8_wordlist_swedish.csv.

Yes, I know
But if it has some non windows-1252 character, that will just mess up the whole thing, and we have our own encoding, but an UTF-8 source is required. It's also pretty easy to convert the encoding.
Once the correct encoding is defined, the next updates to the file shouldn't change that choosen encoding, this is the point of the warning text.

Hi Roger,

... just for the notification ...

Okay, I've raised a PR, with an updated file (as the latest Beta version has some modifications).

You will find that file attached to this post, can you translate the new entries (all the ones with a "///<<< TRANSLATE" at the end of the lines.
The encoding has changed, it's now ISO-8859.


Cheers.
