Using "External Tools" outputting Unicode
Posted: Tue Sep 01, 2009 7:05 am
Hello all,
I want to use TextPad to process Groff documents. I have created an "External tool" executing the following command line:
and checked "Capture output".
It works OK with English, but every Russian letter turns into two wrong characters, which is incorrect, because the same command yields a valid unicode file when executed from the command prompt (with output redirected into a file).
I have selected UTF-8 as default encoding for the Tool Ouput buffer, but when I look at its properties (with the right mouse button) it says:
although it was UTF-8 before the execution of the "External Tool".
Can you please help me?
Anton
