Problem summary
**************************************************************** * USERS AFFECTED: * * IBM Personal Communications when used with Vietnamese host * * code pages. * **************************************************************** * PROBLEM DESCRIPTION: * * In a IBM Personal Communications emulator session configured * * with Vietnamese host code page 1130 or 1164, Vietnamese * * characters may not be displayed properly. This may happen * * while keying in new characters, editing or deleting existing * * characters. Even moving the cursor using arrow keys or by * * click of a mouse may render incorrect characters on the * * emulator screen. The emulator session may also crash * * sometimes. * **************************************************************** * RECOMMENDATION: * **************************************************************** In a IBM Personal Communications emulator session configured with Vietnamese host code page 1130 or 1164, Vietnamese characters with diacritics (accent marks) may be rendered incorrectly. For example, 'e' + '`' changes to 'aÞ ', whereas it should have been 'eÞ '. In some circumstances, some characters are retained from previous screens. In other words, the emulator screen fails to update completely. Also, using arrow keys or clicking mouse buttons to move the cursor position may cause the emulator session to hang or crash.
Problem conclusion
PCSWS.EXE and PCSCLIB.DLL have been changed to rectify the problems with Vietnamese characters. Fix scheduled for PCOM 6.0.15 Refresh Pack
Temporary fix
