Hi, I've just downloaded Amaya 9.0 and discovered it has some problems with internationalization (unless it's me who is causing them). A detailed description follows. I. Saving an iso-8859-2 document as UTF8 Amaya can only save documents in utf-8, us-ascii or latin 1. If I open an iso-8859-2 document it's displayed correctly but as soon as I save & reload it all the non-latin 1 characters are either gone or turned in something else (forcing another encoding, such as iso 8859-2 doesn't help). It seems the problem is that Amaya 9.0 doesn't handle neither saving the document in the original encoding (iso 8859-2) nor reencoding it correctly into utf-8. If I reencode the document in question into utf-8 by an external converter and open it with Amaya all characters are displayed correctly and I can modify, save and reload the document without further problems. Conclusion: Amaya should either preserve the original encoding or convert the document correctly into utf-8 (perhaps setting <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8">). II. Some iso-8859-2 characters cannot be typed The character t with caron described below cannot be typed in a document - neither in the main view nor in the source code view - though it may be typed in the url field. If I copy and insert it from another application it's displayed correctly. ť » Latin Small Letter T With Caron; unicode code: 0165 Note: Amaya 8.7 (at least the one I've compiled) haven't had this problems. Platform info Amaya 9.0 released 2005/1/6 OS: Debian Linux Good luck in the bug hunting! Jakub Holy -- e-mail: jakub.holy@centrum.cz www: http://jakubholy.webpark.cz/index.html ICQ: 98180462
