First of all, I do not know if this is a PSPad issue or a Wine issue.

My system is Xubuntu 7.04. That is, Linux which uses UTF-8 internally. I run
PSPad using Wine, just because there is no other editor anywhere near as good as
PSPad for Linux. My PSPad version is still 2259.

I have one small but annoying problem. If I want to search for text, the wrong
encoding is used. Let me give an example:

I highlight a word and press [ctrl]+[shift]+[Down]. This works like expected:
the next occurrence of that word is found.
After that, I select Search->Find from the menu, and only the first character of
the above highlighted word is shown in the search window.
If I use the find function directly (without doing the "next occurrence search"
first), I can type a string, but it will not be found, because I get a message
saying "<first character>?????? not found".

My guess is that the UTF-8 encoded string is seen as two-byte-windows-encoded.

Similar things happen in the "Search in Files" window. I can enter a path or a
file mask, but it is remembered and used in the wrong encoding.

Is this a PSPad thing or a Wine thing? If it is a Wine thing, I'll report it to
the Wine community.

Best regards
