Hello Argyriou,
Thanks for your information.
We have some set of character sets defined on the basis of ISO_LATIN.
Like for "western European" languages we used ISO_LATIN_1 and the
character set is defined as below in the Dictionary source code.
@if ISO_LATIN_1
;
+--------------------------------------------------------------------------+
; | The next sentences are to upshift or downshift accented vowels in the
|
; | right way. The explanation of the sentence is in the manual:
|
; | PowerHouse for UNIX
|
; | PDL and Utilities Reference
|
; | (Version 7.23)
|
; | Pages: 281 to 282
|
; | It is mandatory to recompile all source code for that.

Greek characters set uses ISO_LATIN_7 (ISO 8859-7). So I need the
character set for Greek alphabates so that I can compile the dictionary
using ISO_LATIN_7. Please help.

Come on, David. There are people on the planet that speak Greek (me for
example) but I don’t think anybody speaks Aramaic or Phoenician any more.
Now, to try to answer Pandurang’s question, I guess whatever change
necessary will have to be done in the SYSTEM OPTIONS statement of the pdl.
I found an old piece of code which was in production until 2001 in a Unix
environment (DGUX). Here goes:
System Options &
ASCII8 &
Application Security ID method UIC &
ALLOW CENTURY &
INPUT CENTURY 19 FROM YEAR 80 &
Date Format DDMMMYY Date Separator "/" &
Sysmonths "ΙΑΝΦΕΒΜΑΡΑΠΡΜΑΙΙUΝΙUΛΑΥΓΣΕΠΟΚΤΝΟΕΔΕΚ" &
Title "ΑΒΓ"
The Sysmonths string contains Greek characters, so does the Title string. I
haven’t used Powerhouse after 2002 so I don’t remember much. What I
remember, though, was that there was nothing really special to be done at
the Powerhouse level in order to compile the dictionary. I remember that I
have seen in some Powerhouse implementations another option used, involving
a string of Ascii characters, but I don’t remember what it was.
Anyway, Pandurang, please send me any questions and I will try to help.

What about ISO_ARAMAIC and ISO_PHOENICIAN?

Hello Team,
The dictionaries are compiled for different character set on the basis of
ISO_LATIN.
For different ISO LATIN there are changes done in dictionaries for upshift
,downshift localization.
What changes will be required for using Greek character set , The
ISO_LATIN_7 is being used for Greek character set.
What changes should be done in the dictionary for compiling the dictionary
with iso_latin_7.
Thanks & Regards
