character endoding

What is causing different characters in text area and search window? In the picture I have used the same Scandinavian keyboard buttons in both areas.

Unicode UTF-8 encoding in NEdit NG is high on my priority list. Hope to focus on it soon.

@marilmanen Basically it is that Qt's native widgets happily support Unicode and other character sets, while the main text widget only supports latin1. I do plan to address this eventually, likely using a strategy similar to xnedit where internally, everything is converted to UTF-8... but to do it properly, I think will be a non-trivial undertaking. We'll get there.
