[Question] Is diacritics supported ?

[rchovan]

Hi, nice work, I want to add it to HomeAssistant. Currently I'm using my Huawei USB modem on Mikrotik router for receiving SMSs, but it does not support diacritics. Is diacritics supported in this local gateway ?

Thanks.

Hi, I did some tests,

• diacritics in gammu is supported with UTF8 encoding

  
  Umiestnenie 100001, zložka "Prijaté", pamäť telefónu, Doručené správy

- diacritics in sms-gammu-gateway is partially supported, characters with diacritics are converted to native characters, like 
š > s, ľ > l , č > c, etc.

Strange thing, é is not converted to e  😃 

It is better than in Mikrotik, but could you please implement diacritics support ? 
I don't know python, but If you need any other help, I'm free to help.

Hi @rchovan I just created the PR #15 with some improvements in message handling. It should fix your issue with diacritics
