questions about TXT Viewer

[J@CKY]

Hi everybody, i am just a newbie....

recently, installed rockbox on my F20,
i have some txt, ebooks, in chinese, but i can read it by the default txt viewer,
are there any support for eastern languages?

p.s. the rockbox is fine to display chinese/japanese, etc, just the txt viewer can't.

Thanks a lot!

You can select the codepage to use in the text viewer settings menu. You most likely have this setting wrong.

That's news to me...

Do you mean the overall codepage setting? I can't find a 'text viewer settings menu' on my Gigabeat.

A quick search for "text viewer codepage" brings up the following post: http://forums.rockbox.org/index.php?topic=10756.msg81588#msg81588 (ok, had an advantage  )

The button to bring up the text viewer's menu on the gigabeat is according to the code... "Menu".

I'll really try work on this chapter somewhen the next days...

oh... my fault i have overlook the "encoding" in the txt viewer menu....
this problem is solved....

but upcoming... another question....
are there any bookmark function for the txt viewer?
I have problem as follow:
1. view, for example, a.txt, read to half way, then quit, the viewer did save where i was up to...

2. then read another ebook, say, b.txt, and read half way again, that quit, the viewer save my progress as well

3. when i go back to read my a.txt, the bookmark has gone...
it starts from the very beginning.... >.<

this is my problem, are there any bookmark function for the txt viewer for every single file? just like the bookmark function of the audio player!

p.s : sorry about using "jz" or "abt"
i have modified.

Please respect our forum guidelines. "jz" is not a word, much as "abt" is not.

Yes. There is no dedicated "create bookmark" function but the last position of the last n files (don't know the exact number of n) will get recognized.

I had the impression that this functionality is broken atm, but I haven't found the time to check or investigate.

Well, you could verify if it works or not. Try to reproduce it, and try to find out under which circumstances it works or not.

But as I said, I haven't checked this so I might be wrong.

I just comitted a fix for a bug where the first two bookmarks saved into a no-existing bookmark file would not be remembered. Could you please check with r14680 or later if your problem still persists.
