Umlaut 'ä', 'ö', 'ü', 'ß' not recognised during build

[guest]

I added a German translation for the Editor2BrowserCommands in nls, but 'ä', 'ö', 'ü', 'ß' cause errors.

This should work fine -- just make sure you're using UTF-8 encoding on the file. Please feel free to attach the code, if you don't have commit access. I'd be happy to check it in for you.

German translation of lables used in editor2.

Sorry for my late reply. Just came back from holiday... ;-)

The files are UTF-8 encoded but after a build (with option -Dlang=de) 'ä', 'ö', 'ü', 'ß' got replaced by strange characters.

I also noticed the other day that the save as utf-8 build code does not appear to be working. If this is a regression, I think it should be fixed for 0.4.2

What I saw the other day with UTF-8 failures appears to be a separate issue. The attached files do not appear to be encoded with UTF-8. If I change the encoding to UTF-8, everything works fine. I will check this in to the trunk. Could you please post your name here on this ticket so I may give you credit for your work?

Please note that we still have not converted all widgets to resources. Editor2 still has some hard-coded English strings: #1962

Yes, I replaced the hard-coded English strings by German strings as well. I can post these translations if you like.

BTW: What do you mean by 'credit' for my work? Anyway, my name is Ralf. :-)

So, there appears to be no bug here. It seems that UTF-8 encoding does work as advertised. Marking 'wontfix'
