ps> how can i compile source code, i met "AkelEdit.rc is not a valid animated cursor/icon RIFF file" error message in vs2003

I currently doesn't have Visual Studio 2003 for test.

I compiled source code with:
Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003
Visual Studio 6.0
MinGW

For those who works with Visual Studio 7.0 (2003)/Visual Studio 8.0 (2005)/Visual Studio 9.0 (2008) linker input must be changed:
libc.lib -> libcmt.lib

it works well
thanks your hard works

I made some optimizations, can you test the next built?

yes it works fine.

Man you put me into difficult and interesting area
Test version.

version 4.15 has a bug

Line 2437: if (ImmEscapeW((HKL)ae->dwInputLanguage, hIMC, IME_ESC_HANJA_MODE, &ae->dwImeChar))

first parameter, Input locale identifier(ae->dwInputLanguage) is initialized as
ae->dwInputLanguage=LOWORD(GetKeyboardLayout(0));

but ImmEsacape requires raw dada, so it can be changed like

HKL hkl = GetKeyboardLayout(0);
if (ImmEscapeW(hkl, hIMC, IME_ESC_HANJA_MODE, &ae->dwImeChar))

and it works

thnaks

Thanks

Test version

yes test version works as same as notepad

Instructor,

I have a related issue (version 4.3.5). It's about how this "indirect" method input works in AkelPad. Below is a Japanese example (the word for "Russia").

If you are interested in how to type this (with the relevant support installed), this is how. Change the language to Japanese, change the input mode to "hiragana," then type "R" "O" "S" "I" "A" (without quotation marks) in succession. But I don't think it's necesary for you to reproduce this to understand my issue, so please bear with my explanation a little bit.



Next, by hitting Space once, the first image becomes the second image. This change is the reason I called it "indirect" above. To make the change stick, You need to hit Enter.



The above image shows I typed "R" "O" again after hitting Enter.



This is where my issue lies. The above image shows I typed "R" "O" again without hitting Enter. Can you see that the newly input character is overlapping the old ones? Many people use this key action because they know they can skip Enter. As soon as some alphanumeric keys are hit, the change on the previous characters should stick and the whole thing should proceed normal as shown in the third image. That's how Notepad.exe works.

I wish I could look at the source code and tell you how to do it like harfman did above, but I can't. Could you take a look at this for me?

Thanks.

How can I choose "hiragana" input mode? Do you have some special key on Japanese keyboard?

Instructor
After you change the language to Japanese, a language bar should appear somewhere. It has icons that look like a brush, some kind of box, and others. If you click the icon that says "A", a few options appear. "Hiragana" should be there.

I turn on "hiragana" input mode and try to follow your screenshots, but when I type "RO" I get:

Instructor
It doesn't matter what you get. Hit Space from that image, then it changes to something else like my second picture above. Then hit Enter, the "underbar" (or "under-dots"?) disappears and the change is made.

Like I said above, I want to skip this Enter and just keep hitting some alphanumeric keys right after Space.

See 4.3.6 release.

Huge thanks!
