Convert extensions to UTF-8. #7

Closed vblm closed 9 years ago

A couple of files had some latin-1 characters, which the Linux IDE couldn't open for editing, at least on locales that use UTF-8. Latin-1 is mostly compatible with UTF-8, so this only changes a couple characters.

Actually, the documentation says:

In general it is best to avoid accented or unusual letters in titles and author names, but the standard ISO Latin-1 characters should be allowed - for instance,

So it's clearly a bug that the Linux IDE is failing to support Latin-1. On the other hand, I don't know if UTF-8 is guaranteed to work on all platforms, either.

This is an interesting one, as I don't think you actually can change the encoding that Windows I7 uses.
