Support for non-english letters

[madskjeldgaard]

Hello! First of all thanks for the amazing work on this. It really is a great interface for TW and it is making my project management a lot smoother.

I am Danish and having trouble with using my native æøå in TaskWarrior.Vim. When using them here, they are all converted to à and some. In normal buffers æøå works fine and so does it if I just use TW normally on the command line, so I suspect it's a problem with this plugin.

I'm on NVIM 0.3.4 on Ubuntu Studio 19.04 if that's of any help.

Thanks a lot for your work on this.

Best regards Mads

Hi, there seems to be some Unicode issue.
What is the æøå in your post?
I don't quite understand what your question is...

[madskjeldgaard]

Sorry, æøå are letters in the Danish alphabet and they are not supported in the current unicode of Taskwarrior.Vim. So that when for example I write a description for a task like "Må besøge øen, husk æg", then the unicode thing jumbles it into strange letters. See screenshot below for example (last task).

Ah, I see.
Can you confirm this is not a neovim issue but the plugin issue?
Then I can take a look at it.

[madskjeldgaard]

Not sure how to confirm it but if you have suggestions let me know. As a test I have written the same sentence as above in a seperate NVim buffer:

OK, this might be a unicode issue.
But I have no experience with that and it may take some time to fix it, if possible.

I tried with Vim and the problem is the same.
But with the old blindFS/vim-taskwarrior, this problem doesn't appear, neither with vim nor neovim. I guess that one of the fixes in this version broke up unicode.

Thanks for the feedback, and sorry for still not fixing it.
Pretty busy this month... but this issue is on my list.
