wine users - Sep 2001 - Wine and cyrillic input and output ?

Hello.

Is it possible to run russian win98 programs under current wine, and get 
russian input and output? If yous, how to setup this? My desktop is 
russian, I have both koi8-r and unicode fonts installed.

Last time I tried wine some months ago (maybe a year), and all russian 
output of the programs was unreadable - it looked like second byte of 
unicode characters was just set to zero.

Thanks for your answers.

Yes, it is possible. It works out of the box for both 16 and 32-bit apps.

Look at the wine/documentation/samples/config file. There are a couple of
samples for russian users in the [fonts] section. Yet another useful
setting is "TextCP" in the [x11drv] section. It servers as a hint for
the
x11drv in which encoding send data to X11 to display windows' captions.
For koi8-r fonts that parameter should be set to 20866.

Cyrillic output is working starting from june, input - from october 2000.
