StringRequest does not handle Unicode on windows

Post by amiga23 »

StringRequest does not display correctly on windows. It works fine on GNU/Linux.
If user enters Umlauts in StringRequest requester, these Umlauts are handled as unicode correctly. If I display the same string in a StgringRequest again, Umlauts will be broken.

Can't reproduce. Here is my test script:

Code: Select all

a$ = StringRequest("", "Enter something")
a$ = StringRequest("", "Enter something", a$)

I enter "äöüß" and it is shown correctly in the second StringRequest() call on Windows. Please provide an MCVE.
