UTF-8 not working

[simo]

we are using m00nies tcl for YT the latest one and we got our own API key and it all works fine exept it doesnt output UTF8 no matter what we do :
we tested with the .tcl encoding system in PL and got utf-8 so thats fine
we installed the needed packages (Ubuntu 20.04 OS)
tcl tcl-dev tcllib tcl-tls

still when we try to use utf8 it doesnt output proper we are kinda stuck what else to try

using:
eggdrop v1.8.4
Tcl library: /usr/share/tcltk/tcl8.6
Tcl version: 8.6.10 (header version 8.6.10)
Tcl is threaded
TLS support is enabled
TLS library: OpenSSL 1.1.1f 31 Mar 2020





for locale this is what we have:

LANG=en_US.UTF-8
LANGUAGE=
LC_CTYPE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NUMERIC="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TIME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_COLLATE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MONETARY="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MESSAGES="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_PAPER="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_NAME="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ADDRESS="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_TELEPHONE="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_MEASUREMENT="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_IDENTIFICATION="en_US.UTF-8"
LC_ALL=

hi bro (in eggdrop.conf) try with:

set out-encoding "utf-8"
set fallback-encoding "cp1251"

but you have to remove any tcl you try to convert to utf-8 for example:
utf-8.tcl
