string.lower() problem

[Light]

Hi to all, all word replace scripts don't work with russian, becaue function string.lower don't understand it.. how may fix this problem?

Use a table...
before string.lower the text, do a for loop and gsub the letters.
If you can't figuer it out, i got an example code

There must be something to do with os.setlocale :

os.setlocale (locale [, category])

Sets the current locale of the program. locale is a string specifying a locale; category is an optional string describing which category to change: "all", "collate", "ctype", "monetary", "numeric", or "time"; the default category is "all". The function returns the name of the new locale, or nil if the request cannot be honored.

When called with nil as the first argument, this function only returns the name of the current locale for the given category.

I believe yours may work like:

os.setlocale('ru_RU')

Where did you use it in the script? I suppose you should use it in Main().

function Main()
os.setlocale("ru_RU")
assert(os.setlocale() == "ru_RU", "The locale wasn't set")
end

IIRC you can directly assert os.setlocale("ru_RU"), since it returns nil on failure.

Yes, i use it in main(). it returns nil..
This problem appers in lua 5.1 version, in older versions string functions processing normaly

[Madman]

BadLetters = {
	["?"] = "?",
	["?"] = "?",
	["?"] = "?",
}

function ChatArrival(curUser,data)
	local data = string.sub(data,1,-2)
	local s,e,text = string.find(data,"%b<>(.+)")
	for Upper,Lower in pairs(BadLetters) do
		if string.find(text,Upper) then
			text = string.gsub(text,Upper,Lower)
		end
	end
	SendToAll(curUser.sName,string.lower(text)) return 1
end

Hopes it helps...
