[STR Pending] Link: http://www.fltk.org/str.php?L2348 Version: 1.3-current What I think is that all text should be stored in FLTK as UTF-8, with no exceptions. We've all seen how complicated the Fl_Text_* classes were before in order to store one thing [raw bytes] and display, select, and edit another [expanded <ctrl> representations]. Every place where text can enter the FLTK system needs to be able to convert from raw bytes to UTF-8, and raise a flag so that the user knows if that text has been converted. So from that point of view, and so that we can make progress towards the 1.3.0 release, I'm happy for you to apply your patch and we can close this STR. However, I think that we need to raise an STR/RFE against 1.4 to discuss how we can support not just the CP1252 superset of ISO-8859-1, but also all of the other ISO-8859-* character sets (which would give us all of the characters needed by European languages, and some Arabic and Hebrew too). I shall raise the question in fltk.development now...
