The last few commits to the Italian messages file broke the encoding. That file should be UTF-8. Paul, you need to edit it with a UTF-8 capable editor. And you need to fix the non-UTF-8 parts now, because a mixed-encoding file is broken in all cases.
so i'm in trouble i mean: i used an utf-8 editor (vim), probably by may fault i input text non in utf-8....
Is your system UTF-8 capable? Is your locale an UTF-8 locale?
i'm not able to distinguish between utf-8 and non-utf-8 parts, now.
Don't you see funny characters on line 20 for example?
that's the problem, sigh.... in vim i see the accented letters in the correct way when i input them, but when i reopen the file they are /funny/...
Then somehow your vim is set to ISO8859-1...
how can i do?
Fix your system to be UTF-8. It's high time, we've been in the 21st century for some time now.. :)
ehehehe you're right. apparently i am, but may be something i did wrong in some place...
What is your locale? What settings do you have on the console for LANG, LC_ALL and similar? What distro are you running?
I had it_IT.UTF-8@euro for everything but not LANG, which was it_IT@euro. the problem i think was vim misrecognized the file as not utf8: as soon i saved it with fileencoding=utf-8, it began to work as expected; i changed anyway LANG to match the other environment vars i'm now committing the changes to help_mp-it.h, see pls if now it's ok thanx PS:: it's Debian...
