Try encoding them in UTF-8 (*NOT* UTF-16/UCS-2!); that might work. Of course, getting the Windows C compiler to like it is another matter. You might have to explicitly encode it, e.g. "\302\260C" for "°C". ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <[email protected]> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:[email protected]?subject=unsubscribe
