 |
|
Hi!
Just recently upgraded some of my bots in the botnet to 1.6.17 and because of the halfop/leaf-"bug" I decided to upgrade all of them. One didn't behave as I had hoped with problems regarding the special nordic characters. An ø is replaced with "Ã," (Including the comma(!!)) for instance.
Tried setting "encoding system iso8859-1" in the configfile but no luck.
uname -a dumps out: "Linux <removed> 2.6.10-2.3.legacy_FC2 #1 Sat Feb 18 21:55:30 EST 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux". Fedora Core 2 I guess..
Yeah, and the nordic characters work in other applications like joe, and also at the command prompt.
Any ideas? |

eggdrop already uses iso-8859-1 as encoding system.
"Ã," looks like an utf-8 character displayed as iso-8859-1 string. check your editor/files for beeing actually iso-8859-1 or convert them all to utf-8 and change eggdrop totally to utf-8.

| Guess the problem is related to serverwide settings then. How do I set the encoding system? |

as mentioned before, its set by eggdrop, so I suppose its in the eggdrop source. If it didnt, TCL would use utf-16 ^-^.

I've kinda fixed it.. Changed nothing from my original setup, but installed an older version of TCL (8.3.0) and recompiled the eggdrop. Voilà! Everything regarding the special norwegian characters worked.
Only problem now is that I get the following error from one of my scripts: "Cant' find package http"... Any ideas about that one? |
