Re: How to set new page name encoding to utf-8 ?

 

 Hi Jaap,

I am not sure if it is a encoding issue, I made a screen cast at
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0Bz6ull8GYLoeTGdTM3FyVDlNSUk/edit?usp=sharing

Journal
    09
        9
        10
        11
        13
        12    // this is strange

You can see "12" is placed in a wrong order ( not between "11" and "13"),
and the focus jumped to "13" when I click on "12".
( Page "12" is created using zim 0.61 windows installer version on Win7
x64, other pages are created with zim 0.61 under ubuntu 14.04 x64. )

The zim note book is stored on a NTFS volume, I doubt NTFS file name
encoding has something to do with this issue.
Hope this clarifies.

Regards,
Jianhan

 Hi Hianhan,

 Zim uses UTF-8 internally, regardless of the file system encoding. So, I'm
not sure I understand your question.
