Chinese character support with Flashfxp

[vincentlier]

Hello there,

I just recently bought a Flashfxp license and installed 3.2.0 (build 1080)

I myself am located in europe but i transfer a lot of files on ftp servers in China, however when i log in to chinese ftp servers i am unable to see the chinese login message and the folder names are in strange ascii codes.

On my Windows XP Pro i installed the chinese language pack so i am able to normally see chinese websites, but flashfxp is off course not integrated with windows.

When logging in to a random chinese ftp server i see characters like:

ÄúÕýÔÚ´¦ÓÚ´Åà …ÃŒ E :\>£¬´Ë´ÅÅÌÏÖÔÚ »Â¹Ã“Ð 49966.50 MB ¿ÉÓÿռä

How can i add a chinese character support in flashfxp?

I want to keep my flashfxp program itself in english language off course :)

Thanks in advance

in flashfxp change fonts to the ones that support desired characters

Actually, I think that he means the font in the panel, not the status window. For being able to see characters like that in the panel, FlashFXP needs to support UTF8, which is planned for the rewrite AFAIK.

What i mean is that on the chinese ftp servers i login to, the dir/folder names are in chinese, but because it is not recognised by flashfxp as being chinese it makes strange characters.

The same if part of the ftp login message is in chinese, i see for instance this:

I had the same in internet explorer on chinese websites, but after installing the chinese language pack for windows, i am able to see it in normal chinese and i am able to translate it with an online translation tool.

Then you should do what MxxCon suggested ;)
