All:
I can enter UTF-8 characters using the ever so easy to remember "CTRL+SHIFT+u ... four digits ... ENTER" method, but it won't save:
"An error occurred while converting the file from UTF-8 in "ISO-8859-1". The file remains unsaved."
Is there a solution? Actually I don't even need UTF, but I would like to add, say ASCII #127 or another ASCII extended character.
