encoding issues with mixed encoding in calendar entries #99

Open earthtrip opened 6 years ago

earthtrip commented 6 years ago

Hi - My work calendar is used by users in multiple operating systems (Windows, Mac OS, Linux) and people just copy/paste things into the invites that leads to what I Think are mixed encodings like curly quotes, etc from MS based documents. Also the bullet character in MacOS I Don't believe is UTF-8 as well.

Anyway - every time that the fetch call is made I get this error in a window. Is there any way to force raw-text or some other mechanism to make this work as it stands now it's unusable. I also was getting the org.png error that was mentioned elsewhere but solved that by saving an org.png file to my org-gcal directory. Thanks for any help.

These default coding systems were tried to encode text in the buffer mycal.org ‚: (utf-8-unix (92194 . 4194274) (92195 . 4194176) (92196 . 4194201) (92368 . 4194274) (92369 . 4194176) (92370 . 4194204) (92380 . 4194274) (92381 . 4194176) (92382 . 4194205) (94872 . 4194274) (94873 . 4194176)) However, each of them encountered characters it couldn‚Äôt encode: utf-8-unix cannot encode these: ‚ Ä ô ‚ Ä ú ‚ Ä ù ‚ ...

Click on a character (or switch to this window by ‘C-x o’ and select the characters by RET) to jump to the place it appears, where ‘C-u C-x =’ will give information about it.

Select one of the safe coding systems listed below, or cancel the writing with C-g and edit the buffer to remove or modify the problematic characters, or specify any other coding system (and risk losing the problematic characters).

Has anyone discovered a workaround for this? It's infuriating to deal with all day.

File your bug on https://github.com/kidd/org-gcal.el. That fork is the one that's being maintained now.
