| 373.1 | Is This Multia-Specific, Or A Generic NT Feature? | XDELTA::HOFFMAN | Steve, OpenVMS Engineering | Mon Mar 24 1997 13:36 | 3 |
|
A Multia box is an NT box. Can you use another NT box?

| Steve,
It's sure, any NT box as long as it can disply OPEN VMS DECwindow/Motif
application with Chinese Character support. I suppose you have another
solution, would you please let me know?
Thanks & Reg.

You already asked about this over in the HUMANE::MULTIA conference,
over in note 607.*, back on 22-MAY-1996, and again in note 760.*, on
26-FEB-1997. And the answers you received to 607.* -- if you were
ever able to get that suggested configuration to work -- likely still
apply here.
: It's sure, any NT box as long as it can disply OPEN VMS DECwindow/Motif

This is either an NT question, or a DECwindows Motif question, an Asian
OpenVMS question, or an eXcursion question -- one thing this is not is
a "vanilla" OpenVMS question.... (Only with one or more of these other
products can an OpenVMS system display chinese characters.)
There are a couple of documents available on this, including:
http://webir.das.dec.com/objects/DTJB06/DTJB06SC.TXT
http://www-mcs.iso.dec.com/rollout/WINNT_28624-16-JAN-1997.TXT
http://www.ilo.dec.com/swip/swip_14_0152.html
NOTED::EXCURSION (443.*, 2082.*, 2533.*)
If you have a chinese version of NT (these exist) and eXcursion
(not sure about Chinese support under eXcursion -- what package
was the customer using to display the DECwindows output on the
Multia? eXcursion?) and if you have the appropriate version of
DECwindows Motif, you should be able to do this on most any Windows
NT (Intel or Alpha) system.... Obviously, selling a DIGITAL box
would be nice...
Note: I was unable to locate a version of eXcursion that advertised
Chinese support.
Note: unless the software used originally was specific to the Multia
NT box, this configuration should be possible with a non-Multia
NT box.

| 373.4 | UNIX as X server | HGOM11::HELENZHOU | | Thu Mar 27 1997 01:11 | 17 |
| Hi, Steve
Yes, due to VXT 2000 retirement, we encounter a big trouble with those
customers who need X server disply with locale character support. We
ever choose the Multia as the alternative, then it was retired too.
Now, the customers want PC X server with local language support, I got
to know that Digital UNIX's font set can be down load to PC for achieve
the purpose. But, now the customer asked for VMS Motif local language
application disply on X server. Excusion doen not support Chinese
character I 'm told. WNT may disply local language, but keyboard
mapping may be an issue. So I finally choose a Digital UNIX station as
OPEN VMS Motif X server with chinese support. It should be work, right?
Thanks for all of your help!

| 373.5 | Wrong Conference | XDELTA::HOFFMAN | Steve, OpenVMS Engineering | Thu Mar 27 1997 09:59 | 15 |

You are asking the wrong folks. OpenVMS itself can not do this.
Other products *may* be able to do this, but you're asking the
OpenVMS folks questions about other products and configurations.
And there appears to be another question I'm having trouble
expressing: Multia is an NT box. *If* what you were depending
on in the Multia was "stock NT" features or was a package that
was available for "stock NT", you *should* be able to use most
any NT platform for your purpose.
But this is the OpenVMS conference, and the folks lurking here
are familiar primarily with OpenVMS, not with X Servers and
localization on NT.
