    Problems with non-ASCII characters

    Hi Adam,
    For some odd reason, the message I want to post disappears when I hit the post button, presumably because of the character entiies I used in the explanation.  So  I will have to  restrict myself to plain text.

    The problem I encountered is the following: Non-ASCII characters such as accented or umlauted vowels are converted to character entities (i.e. code numbers with a leading ampersand, and trailing semi-colon), which they shouldn't. 
    What is more, these entities are not displayed in the editor window, neither in normal view nor in preview mode. I should be very grateful, if you could see into the matter as soon as possible.

    Karl
