Followup-For: Bug #316258
Package: kate
Version: 4:3.5.3-2
*** Please type your report below this line ***
Hi,
I am not the original bug reporter but I think I have a similar problem.
General problem: I open an UTF-8 file and kate displays it. Non-ascii
characters are displayed as a sequence of totally different characters.
Then I go to the menu Tools->Encoding.
I see that 'Western European (iso 8859-1)' is ticked. I select 'Unicode
(utf8)' and after that most of the characters are displayed correctly (I
think the exceptions are those for which there is no font installed.)
This happens e.g. with all the .desktop coming with KDE, for example
/usr/share/applications/kde/kate.desktop
The same happens for XML files, which are correctly recognized as XML files
(as is visible due to coloring of the file) but not the encoding.
I expect kate to autodetect UTF-8 encoding since false positives are rare.
Best wishes,
Gabor Braun
