Beta Patches
These patches are not fully tested, nor normally necessary for operation of MetaEdit+: install them and use them with care, and only if you want or need the changes mentioned.
- Japanese support: character input, encodings, fonts, shell commands
- japanese55.mep allows inline input of Japanese characters, adds the
Japanese encodings, uses Japanese fonts, and allows Japanese characters in
calls to shell commands. The Japanese patch should only be loaded if the OS locale is set
to Japanese before starting MetaEdit+. See japanese55.txt
for more details.
