Maybe the translation utility did some conversion. Lazarus opens it as ISO-8859-1, which allows even some basic editing without loosing/destroying data.

[Lazarus] MacOSAll.pas has invalid UTF-8 characters
Hi, >From what I can gather the following unit seems to have invalid UTF-8 >characters /packages/univint/src/MacOSAll.pas It's easily noticeable using an editor like KWrite or gEdit. KWrite make them easier to spot, by showing a black circle with white '?' inside. Lazarus and gEdit shows them as the letter A with a small circle on the top. Is that unit meant to be like that? eg; line 169, 174, 182 etc... all contain those odd characters.

[Lazarus] Mantis statistics / More
Just seen the thread about statistics. I thought I bring forward another idea I recently had. Would it make sense to add some fields to the bugs, classifying them as: - bug - regression [ and last working version / revision ] - feature They are just meaningful for statistics. And maybe helpful to create release notes. Specially if regressions can differ between "regression after/before last stable release". Because if you want to see how many bugs where fixed in 0.9.28 you do not want to count any regression bugs introduced and fixed in 0.9.27. If it was a regression between 0.9.24 and 0.9.26, then for 0.9.28 this is probably a normal bug fix. (which may still have a value in "last working version / revision") Any thoughts?

I do know about unMHT, but my issue with it is that it doesn't come standard with Firefox. On all my systems (Ubuntu Linux), Firefox and OpenOffice are standard apps always available.

I use wget as well for multiple pages, but for single pages, I wanted content and images in a single file. Otherwise I could have used the standard Firefox "File | Save As | and select Complete page". Up to know I have been using the latter, but Firefox printing support still has a lot to be desired, whereas OpenOffice prints perfectly.
