           Summary: Hebrew text: input impossible
           Product: Wine
           Version: 0.9.45.
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: wine-gui
        AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
        ReportedBy: winehq-bugs at dotancohen.com


Created an attachment (id=8160)
 --> (http://bugs.winehq.org/attachment.cgi?id=8160)
Shows "Swedish vowels" that display on the screen instead of Hebrew when typing
in Wine. The real Hebrew was typed on Windows.

When typing Hebrew in applications under wine, I get different results with
different programs. No program is actually able to enter Hebrew text.

MS Notepad:
The first letter shows up fine. All subsequent keypresses display the same
letter on the screen. Moving the cursor to the first letter and deleting it
transforms the other letters into what they should be. So typing
Shin-Lamed-Vav-MemSofit shows Shin-Shin-Shin-Shin on the screen. Backing up and
deleting the first Shin leaves Lamed-Vav-MemSofit on the screen. Note that the
letters do appear right to left (so the text is readable) however it is
left-aligned. I can successfully paste Hebrew text copied from native Linux
applications and it displays fine.



Ilium Software ListPro:
I imported my ListPro database from Windows. Hebrew text typed on Windows
displays fine, but I cannot add new text. All text that I type in Wine displays
in the wrong encoding, it looks like Swedish vowels. See attachment: the Hebrew
was typed in Windows, and the "Swedish vowels" is text that I tried to add in
Wine. I can successfully paste Hebrew text copied from native Linux
applications.



For reference, this is my setup:

ubuntu at ubuntu-laptop:~$ wine --version
wine-0.9.45
ubuntu at ubuntu-laptop:~$ locale
LANG=C
LANGUAGE=he_IL:he:en_GB:en
LC_CTYPE="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="he_IL.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=he_IL.UTF-8

Thanks.
