This is all the data needed for slovene localization of FreeBSD. The needed files are: - si.iso.kbd (syscons slovene keymap) to be put in /usr/src/share/syscons/keymaps - iso-8859-2-8x8.fnt, iso-8859-2-8x14.fnt and iso-8859-2-8x16.fnt fonts for syscons, to be put in /usr/src/share/syscons/fonts - si_SI.ISO_8859-2.src localized time strings to be put in /usr/src/share/timedef/data The si.iso.kbd keymap can also be installed as hr.iso.kbd because the croatian and slovene keymaps are exactly the same (as far as I know). Note that there is already an iso-8859-2-8x16.fnt in FreeBSD, but IMHO it is ugly. The one here looks the same as the usual BIOS font on most PC's and is available in all three standard sizes. The si.iso.kbd keymap was created by me, the font files were copied from the Linux kbd package. They were originally created by Kosta Kostis. I tried contacting the author but mail to kosta@blues.sub.de bounces. As the kbd archive has been widely distributed I guess those font files are in the public domain (the original archive contained no copyright statement). The original archive can be found at ftp://ftp.uni-erlangen.de/pub/doc/ISO/charsets/isofont101.tar.gz >How-To-Repeat: Install FreeBSD and notice that there is close to no support for iso-8859-2 languages and no support for slovene. >Fix: Download si-locale.tar.gz from ftp://ftp.amis.net/pub/FreeBSD/ and add the files to the system. After adding the files to the appropriate directories and changing the appropriate makefiles apply the following simple patch to /usr/src/usr.bin/mklocale/data/Makefile: --- Makefile.old Fri Feb 28 23:54:47 1997 +++ Makefile Sun Sep 14 23:51:21 1997 @@ -24,7 +24,7 @@ fr_BE fr_CA fr_CH fr_FR is_IS it_CH it_IT nl_BE nl_NL no_NO \ pt_PT sv_SE -LATIN2LINKS = hr_HR +LATIN2LINKS = hr_HR si_SI .SUFFIXES: .src .out >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted:
