I am trying to use changePassword.php to change the password of a user (who has forgotten his password). The name of the user has the spanish character tilde-n in it (UTF-8 \xF1). However, I can't figure out how to specify this character in the --user= value. When I try to use \xF1, the maintenance script sees it as the literal character string "xF1". If I use \\xF1, the script sees the literal character sring "\xF1". I can't figure out how to get the script to accept the unicode string encoding.
Any ideas? -- -- Dan Nessett _______________________________________________ MediaWiki-l mailing list MediaWiki-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/mediawiki-l
