RE: [Boa Constr] BOA UNICODE support

[Fredrik S. <fr...@it...>]

Hi,

I just fetched myself a new Boa from CVS. Tried it with Python 2.2 and
wxPython without unicode first. Ran in to exactly the same problem as
below when typing swedish characters =E5=E4=F6. Thought upgrading to the
unicode version of wxPython would help but to no avail.

Tried it in the StyledTextControl in the wxPython demo as suggested and
it is indeed a bug in wxPython. Same thing happens there.

About 1+ year ago I also had problems with swedish characters coming out
as very strange characters while typing them. Then I hacked around in
boa with the 'handleSpecialEuropeanKeys' function and added a map for
swedish keys. Now that I look through the source the method seems to be
removed and the method calls are commented out... The option in the
preferences file still exists though... What happened? A final fix to
the problem perhaps?

Any ideas on where to dig further?

Regards!
