txt :: Enabling Cyrillic in Windows programs...

Ok, I finally found it!!!

I was looking for ever on how to enable Russian fonts in the programs (not just typing in the language). And finally I found a way. So here we go:

Start -> Control Panel -> Regional and Language Options -> Advanced
Look for Language for non-Unicode programs. Choose Russian and click OK.
Reboot when prompted to do so.

Here's the result:

(Before all Russian was jibberish in this playlist)

P.S. Now you can even save files with russian filenames!

- You were born in Ukraine
- Lived there all your life
- Call it motherland
- Speak Russian because you're in the part or the country where everybody speaks it

Do I really need to continue down the list? :)

You made a were good point about MOST people. :)

Second
If there mostly "Russians", why don't they join and actually be Russians?
At 14 January, 2006 14:16, Lilia said...: OK, honey, you are really running out of arguments here, I like you anyway :) Answering your question, some people are comfortable where they have settled. Let's just leave it at this. :)

So, yes, I agree that it is pointless to continue this argument. You will never face the facts and there is no point of trying to convince you. At least me, bla and everybody else on this blog are able to analyze facts and make conclusions based on them. :)
At 14 January, 2006 20:44, Lilia said...: Ok, first of all you have Bla's support and that's it, and he is my friend too, so that one is not going to do it. Second, this whole Ukrainian vs. Russian thing is getting old. You want to think that I am Ukrainian, I do not have a problem with that (I was born and raised in that great country). If you wish to think of me as Russian it is cool too, it is my legacy. So, whatever it is you wish to call me, Your Majesty, lol :)
