Opening a UTF-8 w/o BOM file shows strange characters instead of correct acented characters (shows ok in Notepad++). It also doesn't seem comply with the IDE Options sd_UTF8_NoBOM.

Hello,

I'm trying PyScripter 3.0 with Python 3.5.4 32 bits.
If I open a Py3 source file (saved using Notepad++ with UTF-8 w/o BOM) it shows strange characters instead of the correct accented characters. In Notepadd++ it shows ok.
Even if I select UTF-8 (No BOM) in Edit\File format.

PyScripter always assumes Ansi, even though I changed the IDE options to assume the default of sf_UTF8_noBOM.

Best regards,

JM

Hi Joao,

Your file needs to include an encoding declaration.

Τhanks for the bug report.

See the PyScripter help topic "Encoded Python Source Files" for details and info on how to fix this problem.

Regards

Kiriakos

Hello,

I tried with and without the utf-8 encoding declaration (PEP8 states that a UTF-8 Python 3 source file should not have an encoding declaration).

The problem occurs both ways.

I forgot to mention that if I open my UTF-8 (No BOM) file created on Notepadd++, both on IDLE and Windows Notepad eveything shows ok. Only on PyScripter it doesn't.

Best regards,

JM

Do you mean that PyScripter does not read the file correctly with an encoding declaration?  In that case could you please send me the file so that I can have a look at pyscr...@gmail.com?

PyScripter 3.0.2 should open your UTF8 file correctly even without BOM and an encoding declaration.
