[Eric] Bug report copy/paste to index.kid template closes Eric4

Sun Aug 10 11:06:26 BST 2008

Hi,

QScintilla, the editor component used by eric4, has two modes, 'latin1' 
and 'utf8'. The default mode, which is used if the correct encoding cannot be 
determined by eric4 from the file, can be configured on the 
Editor->Filehandling page of the configuration dialog. If QScintilla is in 
latin1 mode and receives some non latin1 chracters, it will crash. That is a 
QScintilla2 (or even Scintilla) problem. Please change your default encoding 
to 'utf-8', which btw. better suits TurboGears.

Regards,
Detlev
