Eclipse and accent characters [message #167098]

Now that I've got my file (with accents in the content) coming down to my
machine correctly, I would like to view it within Eclipse. When I use the
text editor, it still looks garbled. If I use a system editor (and in my
case choose TextPad), I'm able to view it correctly. Is there a setting
for the text editor, that will allow me to view the file correctly
"within" Eclipse?

You might need to use the right encoding.
Select the file and then Properties menu.

Thanks Olivier.

I had set the project to UTF-8, thinking that would be sufficient,...but
setting that file to UTF-16 made it readable.

Note: if you have files (or folders or projects) that are different from
the default then you should change their encoding and check that into
CVS this will allow others to correctly read the file.
