I'm trying to display some German text using plot (J601). The text has been
read in from a file using fread, decoded using ". , and stored in a table.
When I extract a word with an umlaut from the table (e.g., Aktualität),
assign it to W1, and plot it using
pd 'reset;text 0 _1x ',W1,';show'
the letter with an umlaut does not display correctly.
However, if I evaluate W1 in the jwd, like so:
W1
Aktualität
and then edit and evaluate it like so
W2 =: Aktualität
and then display W2 using
pd 'reset;text 0 _1x ',W2,';show'
W2 displays correctly.
Also
$W1
10
$W2
11
What is going on here? How can I display the unicode characters using plot?
Thanks for any help.
