Up to some time ago the situation was pretty clear. If you started
Lazarus with UTF8 encoding active you were getting a warning that UTF8
wasn't supported.
Now the situation has changed: with UTF8 enabled, I get a proper display
in IDE, with localized captions showing accented letters.
But the catch is that if I try to set up the string list Items of a
combo box with accented letters, I get a mess. I get either an empty
line, or a truncated line, where the accented letter is, and the
run-time items are messed up.
If I start Lazarus with ISO 8859 encoding, the the IDE doesn't display
properly, I get question marks where accented letters are expected, but
I can set up my combo box items form IDE without problems, and they show
properly at run-time.
I understand that this is work in progress and some discrepancies are to
be expected, but I don't know if I should report an IDE bug, a combobox
(or TStringList) bug, or what.
Environement is Linux, widgetset is gtk1.
Thanks
