Another unicode issue
« on: May 09, 2010, 08:14:10 am »
hi, i see that there are a lot of unicode/ansi issues around here but i didn't notice someone with a similar problem to mine(excuse me if there is another topic however, i did a search)
so, when i try to open a txt file that uses unicode, this does not happen and no file is opened
i figured out how ot type special unicode chars in the console and get printed ones too but i really need to open unicode txt-s

Your post lacks the basic of any question, if you really want an answer:

which version of C::B,
which OS (and version),
if self-compiled, which version of wxWidgets and which compiler and version
do you use ?

In this case you should either try a nighly-builf or wait for the next release, what comes soon.
The encoding-detection has changed (and improved) since 8.02 (even if a pure unicode-file was detected correctly in the most cases).

You can send a test file, where detection fails, to  "chardet at jenslody dot de", so I can see whether it gets detected correctly with the newer C::B.
