testing Putty on MS Windows 95,98, and ME



Hello all:

We are in need for people to test putty on Windows 95, 98, and ME to make sure that it can properly render Arabic text on UNIX and linux boxes due to the lack of Unicode support in these versions of Windows.

You can find putty at:

http://www.toomuchcookies.net/~arabeyes/putty-6.6.ex


In order to properly test the bidi on this please put this file into your Unix/Linux box and try and use "less, more and cat" to see it. the file is at:


http://www.arabeyes.org/~nadim/ar_utf8

Make sure that you don't alter the encoding of the files. when you copy the file to your UNIX box, simply type "file ar_utf8" and the output should say it is a utf-8 text file.

Please report the results as soon as possible.

Got questions, don't hesitate to ask

Salam
