= About character encoding =

In general we use UTF-8 as default character encoding.

The AC->settings->encoding is 'utf-8' unless overriden in autocomplete_config.php
The text.php is saved as UTF-8
The css file uses '@charset "utf-8";'

We have to support other encodings like iso-8859-1 because some collections are not utf-8 encoded.

UTF-8 lowercase in PHP (23May07 Markus)

Requires extension mbstring (for functions like mb_strtolower). Following line required in php.ini

In windows:
extension=php_mbstring.dll

or in linux:
extension=php_mbstring.so

(On geek, the mb_... functions were available by default, on Markus's laptop the line above had to be added.)

Texts in text.php are now UTF-8 encoded (23May07 Markus)
