BBEdit thinks the file is encoded as Mac OS Roman, but it is actually ISO Latin 1. Try 'Reopen Using Encoding' and choose Western (ISO Latin 1). Or, when opening, choose Western (ISO Latin 1) in the 'Read As' select menu. JP -- ------------------------------------------------------------------ Have a feature request?
