Cyrillic in the PowerLanguage Editor

Postby Shaman » 18 Dec 2018

Hi!

Do I understand correctly that using Cyrillic in the PowerLanguage Editor is not an impossible problem? Even for comments?

You are talking cryptic, not Cyrillic.
What exactly do you want to do?

At a minimum - write comments in Russian. Transliteration annoys me.

As a maximum - to name variables in Russian.

P.S. Sorry for my english. it's all Google Translate. I'm worse :)

You can write comments in anything you want.
MC ignores everything after //

Not sure about the variable name.
You can always give that an experiment.

Thanks for trying to help! I actively use comments. Unfortunately, the problem is different - after switching the input keyboard language (from English to Russian) - no Cyrillic character can be physically entered into the editor. The editor itself flickers at the same time (I think it just flushes the keyboard buffer - other programs do this when trying to enter invalid characters in the dialog box).

It seems you already have the answer.

Always keep things simple... you will encounter fewer unpredictable behaviors.

I received a response via email from tech support. I post it - maybe someone will be useful:

"Unfortunately Cyrillic input Is not supported by the compiler we are using."

P.S. Admit it, I still hoped that there will be some key in the regedit :)
