Well, it does actually translate my surname correct after converting
to utf-8 (which I did previously actually).
However, I'm not sure if the encoding would function with all platforms.
I think that strings are already translated from/to Unicode.
For example:
Within the Nyquist prompt, I have 3 possibilities to let my name
appear in the message box:
(print "hänggi")
(print "h\303\244nggi")
(print "h\344nggi")
Only the last one throws a warning out.
However, it's needed to e.g. access my document folder within XLISP.
In other words, Nyquist translates the first string into the second
one which has afterwards to be translated into the third one (file
operations only).
Something similar happens after a crash. Audacity warns at recovery
time, although it works properly.
The reason is just that darn "ä" in my user path.
I think I'll stick to the "ae" for the time being.
Thanks Steve.
