RE: Regarding check-in of unicode characters.

[Arthur Barrett]

Maninder,

 

CVS does not support Unicode files, instead they must be committed as binary, in which case you cannot do diff/merge etc. 

 

CVSNT on Mac/Linux/Unix/Windows (free, open source, GPL, just like CVS) does support unicode files (-ku).

 

Please supply more information (file type in repository, cvs version etc).

 

To determine the "status" of the file use:

cvs status myfile

 

To determine your version of CVS use:

cvs version

 

If you are using CVSNT then the CVSNT newsgroup is the place that the developers of CVSNT answer questions:

news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt

or

http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt

 

Regards,

Subject: Regarding check-in of unicode characters.

Hi All,

            We are trying to check-in the following characters into CVS.

But while doing so, the highlighted characters get corrupt and upon checking out, these are replaced by some other characters.

Sí (means yes in Spanish)

Sì (means yes in Italian)

 

Can anybody provide a solution?

 

Thanks and Regards,

Maninder Singh
