Huh? It's not a bug, it's a feature. All strings in GTK+-2.0 are UTF-8 encoded and the application has to assure that only valid UTF-8 strings end up at the toolkit level. This is the only reasonable solution to the encoding mess and it works just perfect. It allows for example to have different languages with different "native" encodings in the same widget. Why do you consider this a bug? Salut, Sven
