Does gnome-terminal use Pango? Is there any way one could make it do so?
I could only find a nine years old thread on this topic on gtk-i18n-list:
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-i18n-list/2000-October/msg00020.html
And that doesn't look encouraging. I am looking for a terminal that
renders Indic scripts well. TIA.
Try rxvt-unicode.
Thanks for the reply. But rxvt-unicode doesn't even render the
Devanagari characters. (gnome-terminal does that well, my only
problem is with ligatures, etc. which are necessary for this script.)
rxvt-unicode documentation says:
devanagari however has no special support because I couldn't (and
still cannot) imagine that anybody would be ok with the extremely
miserable indic rendering that rxvt-unicode currently does.
Sad. (And the Indic Linux Developer's meet concluded just yesterday!)
