Summary: Notepad++: Safes invalid files with unicode encoding Product: Wine Version: 1.1.12 Platform: PC-x86-64 OS/Version: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: P2 Component: -unknown AssignedTo: wine-bugs@winehq.org ReportedBy: belbono@gmx.de
This is present in all wine versions I've had so far (>=0.9.X).
Steps:
- create a file - switch to unicode encoding - write some text (maybe a simple java hello world and try to compile it) - safe file - open file with less
You'll wine added a first character (U+FEFF = BOM?). So e.g. sourcecode cannot be compiled. Using Unicode without BOM works, but there's still a newline as first character in the file.
Sorry I'm not sure if this is really a Bug, all I can say is that compiling should work even if using unicode encoding.
