The LCL only works with utf8, while your file appears to be cp1250. You have to either convert the file to utf8 before opening it or convert it while you read it. BTW, under linux I see the funny characters, though they're not what they should be. I don't know it if is because I'm trying with a snapshot of 0.9.26.1 or because the linux interface is more tolerant with malformed strings than the windows one.
