Japanese eMule???

[Rich]

Thought i would try installing emule and simply selecting Japanese, but there is no Japanese language The problem is searching for Japanese character comes up as 'box box box....' (i.e. 日本語 ---> □□□) , pasting the Japanese seens to seach for □□□ but copying the boxes from the emule panel and repasting pastes them as the original japanese text i've tried various versions of emule and nothing seems to work

there's a thread at emule-project...

http://forum.emule-project.net/lofivers ... 07073.html

where someone suggest installing (?) a Japanese library to your computer but i can't see how that would work if emule wont accept the characters anyway there must be a Japanese version of emule???

hmm i changed language to Japanese (emule then downloaded a language file from emule-project) but i still get boxes when pasting the title name (in Japanese) into emule

The standard eMule deals with Japanese just fine, zzul doesn't add anything as far as I know. It all depends on what system you are running it on, it must be Unicode-capable. My Win2K machine isn't and isn't easily upgraded, whereas XP and onwards can be upgraded by selecting/installing Microsoft options in the OS. For a while I was running the Japanese IME on my XP and and everything was fine with Japanese in eMule. I no longer have the OS set to Japanese as the primary language (way too confusing, since I don't actually speak or read Japanese) but Japanese in eMule still works since the operating system language options were installed.

Can you rename a file using Kanji? i.e. "本語.txt"? If that works I think eMule should, if not then it's the OS holding you back.

no, it simply saves it as 'box box'... guess the OS is the problem

Yes, your OS must be able to display jaopanese characters.
