Now I can admire the ugly tcl/tk-8.4 GUI, in french, but with curious symbols replacing letters with accent like "é" or "ê"

probably same problem on OSX... instead of é, do you see à followed by © ?
if not, then it's a different problem than usual.

P.Boivin noticed it when he tried using my abstractions that use my nbsp (nonbreaking spaces) in IEMGUI labels... they appear as pairs of little squares.


Cygwin Tcl/Tk is 8.4.1, so I think there are bugs there. With Tcl 8.5 on all platforms, I get proper display of many different alphabets, let alone accents. As for encodings, everything should use UTF-8 these days. GNU/Linux distros and Mac OS X use it as the native format (more or less) while Windows uses something not too far off (UCS-16).
