Swedish charcters in messages

Anders Hydén · 8th January 2021, 10:46

HI,
I have succeded in installing the Swedish texts for the insatallation views.
LoadLanguageFile "${NSISDIR}\Contrib\Language files\Swedish.nlf"

But in the special messages, that I self wright, the special charaters are not converted.

How do I do this?

Where are you writing the strings? Are you building a Unicode installer?

You ideally should encode your .nsi/nsh files as Utf8 with a BOM or as Utf16.

I am learning by using the Examples1 and -2.
Just palying around, trying to understand what happens when.

I still don't know if you are saving your .nsi file as Unicode with a BOM.

Anders,
I do not understand what you mean with BOM.
I edit my NSI-fil in Notepad++

Thanks for helping!
I now work with UTF-8-BOM and get the right text.
