Hi guys
I have a peculiar case, I think, while using national chars.
I wonder which one is _playing_ up here, qrencode or zbarimg
When I with:
-> qrencode -l L -v 1 ..
encode:
ADR;LABEL="Kukólka":;;;Kukólka;Mazowieckie;PL
then:
-> $ zbarimg ...
...
ADR;LABEL="Kuk籀lka":;;;Kuk籀lka;Mazowieckie;PL
but when I encode:
ADR;LABEL="Kukółka":;;;Kukółka;Mazowieckie;PL
then:
-> $ zbarimg ....
...
ADR;LABEL="Kukółka":;;;Kukółka;Mazowieckie;PL
you see - if all the "processors" between our email
clients, mine your yours, did not mangle the content - it
seems when there is only *single* polish char - ó - then
_zbaring_ shows that weird output - a Korean or Japanese?
Any other case, add just one morenational char in the line
and the output, even that same - ó - mangled when single,
now shows as it should.
So I checked all nine polish national chars and it's: ó
and ż when occur as single in a line - _zbarimg_ shows
them incorrectly. (or _qrencode_ fails?)
Any _qrencode_ & _zbarimg_ users here who use their
national chars?
I'll be glad for all comments.
thanks, L.
Ah, to answer my question - partly at least - seems that
_zbarimg_ could use some fixing up.
Trying _qrscanner_ and here I get everything shown correctly.
Would anybody know if _zbarimg_ is looked after still, if
it's worth filing a bug?
