Language files which contain non-ascii characters should either be unicode
|
||
|
files or should encode those characters as \u escape sequences so that they
|
||
|
are usable on systems where the default C-String encoding is not the same
|
||
|
as the one on which the language files were created!
|
||
|
|
||
|
Since it is generally not easy to edit unicode directly, or enter the
|
||
|
correct unicode escape sequences, it is recommended that you use the
|
||
|
cvtenc tool to perform conversions of the files before and after editing
|
||
|
in the default encoding used by your system.
|
||
|
|
||
|
For example, to edit the French language file so that it contains an ascii
|
||
|
propertly list with \u escape sequeneces, you wcould do -
|
||
|
|
||
|
cvtenc -EscacpeIn yes French > tmpfile
|
||
|
vi tmpfile
|
||
|
cvtenc -EscapeOut yes tmpfile > French
|
||
|
rm tmpfile
