Subject: Quality of Plan 9's Cyrillic fonts? - msg#00242

List: os.plan9.general

Date: Prev Next Index Thread: Prev Next Index
I've a need to write a bunch of text files in Russian; how do native
speakers/readers feel about the quality of Plan 9's Cyrillic fonts?
Are they good, or should I search elsewhere? Also (and this might be
related to Andrey's recent question), is there a way to type in
Cyrillic's without hitting an Alt sequence for each character?
Thanks!

- Dan C.

I can't speak to that, but under Unix I've been happy using the newer X11 bitmap fonts that have some unicode coverage (like the updated version of the venerable 10x20.) If the licences permit, it might make sense to ship repackaged versions of them with Plan 9.
