Thank you Kaloyan,
All Care2x users: to proceed with the encoding conversion, please send me a
.txt file containing only the accented characters of your given language.
Name the file with the language and current encoding.  I will use these
accented characters to create the encoding tool.
All the very best,
Daniel

Asunto: [Care2002-developers] UTF-8 for all language translations

Hello,

One of the changes in beta 2.2.2 is that the Spanish translation is  
converted from iso-8859-1 to utf-8 character encoding.

This is thanks to Daniel Hinostroza. We both think that it would be  
for good if all language translations are converted to the utf-8  
encoding. This way we will support code that works with only one  
encoding and will avoid some of the encoding problems that we  
currently have.

UTF-8 has becomed de facto standart for multiplatform encoding and I  
think the Care2x will benefit if convert fully to it. There is of  
course a drawback for installations that use non-english letters for  
patient names and other data. In this case, when upgrating to newer  
version of Care2x, the database data should also be converted to  
UTF-8. However, I think this is not so big price to pay.

If there is no objection, then all translation will be converted in  
the next betas. I plan release 2.3 to be fully utf-8. Daniel already  
suggested to help with this tasks. I want to invite everybody who can  
help with even one translation to do it. The number of translations is  
big and this means that there is lot of work.

Greetings
Kaloyan
