Re: [Audacity-devel] non-ascii labels

[Leland <aud...@ho...>]

Hi Stuart,

Japanese would be an awesome test of some changes we've made to the label
handling for our upcoming 1.3.2 beta release.  If you're feeling
adventurous, try downloading:

http://audacity.sourceforge.net/files/audacity-win-1.3.1-beta.zip

See if it fixes the problems you've described.  We'd be very happy to hear
the results.

Thanks

Leland
