Hello everyone ! 
I would like to write a game in French, so I was wondering how I could put this characters : é è à ê, etc. 'cause they don’t work when I try.
I try in javascript code like “é” but it doesn’t work.
Help please !
Copy pasted from the thread on the same subject that is currently directly above yours:
You use the extended ASCII character set to write the characters. The rest is in correctly saving the file. In short, you need to be working in a plain text document; anything more than the bare bones will cause a screw-up. Moreover, whenever you open the text file, you need to open it as a UTF-8 file. This preserves the ASCII characters.
Do not try to use HTML codes.
