Hi, Im a bit confused by the texfile object. When I read from a textfile, characters outside the ascii standard seems not to be supported (replaced by the square). But I can write a textfile, or at least send those characters outside of ascii standard to the text object. And here is the strangeness, the written text file contains totally messed up character maps (ç is placed as à etc.). Any reason for this?
This sounds like Pd is writing files as utf-8 while your editor uses some other character encoding like iso-8859-1.
