Hi Tom

Thank you for looking at this "Danish" problem

In my skin.conf I have:

*encoding = html_entities*

*    [[SummaryByMonth]]*
*        # Reports that summarize "by month"*
*        [[[NOAA_month]]]*
*            encoding = utf8*
*            template = NOAA/NOAA-YYYY-MM.txt.tmpl*

*    [[SummaryByYear]]*
*        # Reports that summarize "by year"*
*        [[[NOAA_year]]]*
*            encoding = utf8*
*            template = NOAA/NOAA-YYYY.txt.tmpl*

I have already tried utf8 in skin.conf, so there must be another 
explanation. The reports are generated at the Raspberry, so can there be a 
problem there with installed language or?

Thanks

Gert
