Incorrect display of formatting characters.

I posted a comment on Curse, but then realised you guys had an issue tracker here.

It seems that formatting (using the section sign) isn't saving correctly on the server. On restarting my client and rejoining the server, all section signs are prefixed with a Unicode accented A. Any ideas on this one?

Even if I manually go in and remove these characters, they come back if I restart my client and rejoin.

How are you setting the text colors ? :)

[gdude2002]

By pasting in the Minecraft formatting codes, eg §4 for dark red.

Also, I just noticed this didn't actually sync to the server - it's stored
locally, which explains why it gets reloaded when I restart the client.

Setting the colors with the Minecraft color codes are not the way you are meant to color your text in Enchiridion.
Instead you are meant to use something like: " [color=red]Rules & guidelines "

Is this kind of thing documented anywhere? How do I do stuff like bold?

Please don't ask why I did this, stupid me thought it would be easier.

[gdude2002]

It's not an awful way of doing it. I still think you should be able to support people adding the signs in manually, though - maybe it's a file encoding issue?

[gdude2002]

@joshiejack @GirafiStudios This looks to be a wider issue, actually.

You might want to check the file encoding of these JSON files, it looks like they can't really handle Unicode.
