[Chessdb-users] Character encoding problem in ChessDB

[Juan M. R. <ri...@ts...>]

O.S: linux debian with KDE desktop.
ChessDB version 3.6.15.

When I enter comments with non-USacsii characters (i.e. accents), the comme=
nt=20
editor window shows a 2-byte code instead of my accented character.=20

However, I can enter the characters in another editor using latin-1 encodin=
g=20
and paste them into the comment editor window. Characters comming from .pgn=
=20
files with latin-1 encoding are also displayed correctly.

I saved the 2-byte code created by ChessDB in a latex file, and opening the=
=20
file with a text editor reveals that the 2-byte code is not UTF-8, as one=20
might think.

How could I enter accented characters in ChessDB comment editor window?

Thanks your your help.

Juan
