Thank you Mohamed. I'll forward this to Sun contacts and maybe we need to create a bug report for these to be included. regards, Ossama
Ok Ossama,Here below, a copy of my message, I send to "dev at lingucomponent dot openoffice dot org" few minutes ego:
First , for the list of the absent countries, with the exception of Israel and of the Eritrea, I notice that it is the same that those ignored by Windows (TM): Comoros, Chad, Djibouti, Mauritania, Palestine, Somalia & Sudan; OOo uses the same list of supported locale and countries in Windows (TM):
http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/lcid-all.mspx http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/winxp/xp-lcid.mspx http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms776294.aspx http://www.microsoft.com/globaldev/reference/lcid-all.mspx http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=KB;en-us;q221435I think that OOo would make happy many persons if it adds countries forgotten by Redmond :) so the entries which I suggest are below but there no "LCID Hex" and "LCID Dec" for majority of them :( (except Israel and Eritrea)
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_COMOROS, "ar", "KM" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_CHAD, "ar", "TD" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_DJIBOUTI, "ar", "DJ" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_MAURITANIA, "ar", "MR" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_PALESTINE, "ar", "PS" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_SOMALIA, "ar", "SO" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_SUDAN, "ar", "SD" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_ISRAEL, "ar", "DJ" },
{ LANGUAGE_ARABIC_ERITREA, "ar", "ER" },
Secondly, I notice, in OOo configuration, that the window: Options -
Language Setting - Languages: CTL (complex text layout), shows only
Tunis, Saudi Arabia, Lebanon & Egypt; the same countries we see at:
http://l10n.openoffice.org/source/browse/l10n/i18npool/source/localedata/data/
I'll suggest, soon, to Arabeyes project (www.arabeyes.org) to make locale xml files for all of the countries absent and submit them to OOo.
Thanks, Mohamed Kebdani
