NuScratch internationalisation / unicode - Raspberry Pi Forums
ghp asked i18n support asap classes; sadly i'm not able make work yet. wait! there encouraging news.
it's important subject i've left side until because, well, it's complicated , not think of lot of fun. (wrongly) had impression support had been pretty cut out of pi version of scratch due problems non-latin character rendering didn't seem urgent issue. ghp's prompting i've spent time looking again , got wrong end of stick somewhere - original system *does* in fact deal non-latin character sets on pi. sigh.
bad news getting relevant vm plugin work newer vm non-trivial because working on build process , .. oh, never mind, it's annoying. news *can* minor experimenting by
a) running nscratchb5.image on older installed vm (which works ok maybe ⅔rd performance of new vm)
b) escaping development environment
c) fiddling unicodeplugin class' "testing" methods force conversion of relevant strings utf8 strings
... , presto! can nice results impossible-for-a-brit-to-pronounce characters.
*isn't* same getting working news means can see clear path making work.

]good news- managed extend vm build process make relevant plugin (oh, fun was...) , right b+ sitting running plugin tests *apparently* correctly.
there's bit more work do, looks far.
