This is actually not an encoding issue, it is a Input Method / keyboard mapping issue, and it is a problem with the GTK+ support for Windows keyboard layouts. Which Windows keyboard layout are you using? Which GTK+ Input Method are you using (Right-Click on the text entry area in a Pidgin Conversation and see which Input Method is selected)? There are a number of open GTK+ bugs that are related, e.g. https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=371371 -D _______________________________________________ [email protected] mailing list Want to unsubscribe?
