Hello,

in the past I have signaled a problem in misaligned characters in a simple text file in which there were accented characters. It looked like this below:

index.php?t=getfile&id=1661&private=0

In principle there is a shift toward the left for each accented character. It seems there is a "eated" space for each accented character.

Today I have a simple test case that produces another problem that maybe related with the previous one.

#include <Core/Core.h>

using namespace Upp;

CONSOLE_APP_MAIN
{       String a = "ultimatepp ultimatepp ultimatepp\n";
	a << "ultimat�pp ultimat�pp ultimat�pp\n";
	SaveFile("a.txt", a);
}

This is what I see if in Project/Package organizer I set ENCODING=Default

index.php?t=getfile&id=1659&private=0

If instead I set ENCODING=UTF8 I get the problem with accented characters:

index.php?t=getfile&id=1660&private=0

Does not help to have as first line the command

SetDefaultCharset(CHARSET_UTF8);

Is it normal? Of course I am missing something... but what?
Thanks,
Luigi
