Show source reveals: <title>Welcome to Friedrich Romstedt’s IRP Home! &mdash; I RP - Friedrich Romstedt</title> Is this the same as in your *.html source (if you look at it in a text editor) or is there some additional change introduced on its way over the web?

If I move the mouse over a section heading, I see something like: Welcome to Friedrich Romstedt’s IRP Home!¶ > In that example, the two-char sequence results from an apostroph ' . AFAIK, Sphinx uses "smartypants" to convert Character ' (39, 0x27) APOSTROPHE * neutral (vertical) glyph with mixed usage to Character '’' (8217, 0x2019) 2019 RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK = single comma quotation mark * this is the preferred character to use for apostrophe At least this is what I see in the first section heading. Maybe you can disable this replacement. > I think that my vim on my institute computer writes out just plain > ASCII (i.e., not 16bit Unicode). ``file`` says:: > ASCII English text If it really writes just ASCII, how do you write Röntgen in your source files? > If anyone has an idea how to track this down, it's very much welcome. In "Romstedt’s", the three bytes of the UTF-8 representation of the Character '’' (8217, 0x2019) RIGHT SINGLE QUOTATION MARK are treated as three characters. How do you specify the title? What is the locale encoding? Günter -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sphinx-dev" group. To post to this group, send email to sphinx-dev@googlegroups.com.
