Pathauto and greek characters
Submitted by manolism on Tue, 2007-08-14 18:20. code | drupal | modules | tipsPathauto is a very usefull drupal module, that automatically generates path aliases for drupal nodes, based on their title. Unfortunately, it does not work with greek character. To be precise, it *can* work, if you use the i18n-ascii.txt file, which will transform the greek characters to latin. Propably that is not what you want though, so here is a version of pathauto that handles greek characters in a more usefull way. Additionaly this version will always cut the title on a delimiter and not in the middle of a word.

for example when you are working with perl files, you need a tabstop at 8 lines and a mapping in <F5> that comments out the current line using a # at the beggining, while in c files, you need comments with /* .. */ and a tabstop at 4 characters.
