Full support for special characters

[gruhn]

Oni has some weird behavior, when dealing with special characters. Typing öäüß in INSERT mode works but typing their upper-case counterparts ÖÄÜ has no effect.

If files, contain these characters, they can be displayed. Looks like the upper-case Ö got converted to a reqular O though. Not sure, I guess I need glasses...

File content:

ö : Ö
ä : Ä
ü : Ü
ß

In fuzzy finder I'm able to type ÖÄÜ but encoding breaks for files with those characters:

The file is actually called Überblick.md

Thanks for the issue, @gruhn ! The special character issue seems like it is the same as #644. The fuzzy finder issue hasn't been tracked yet, it looks like there is a problem with encoding the process output.

A couple of question that will help once I start looking at this:

• Which OS is this?
• Is the Überblick.md file in a git repo? This can impact the behavior of the fuzzy-find.

You're right. This file is in a git repo. I quickly checked in a regular folder and fuzzy-finding the file was not a problem. This is what I experienced on my laptop running Linux Mint 18.1 with Oni 0.2.9 installed.

But now that you mentioned it, I also tested Oni on another machine of mine running Linux Mint 17.2 and Oni 0.2.8. Now checkout this:

Lower-case characters aren't an issue here either. ÜÖ is replaced with UO but only in the first line. In the second line and below, all of them work but the dots are still visible, even when the character and the hole line is deleted. They disappear when I delete the last character of the first line though.

I then upgraded to 0.2.9 on this computer and as far as I can tell, it's the same behavior now as on my laptop, so I can't type ÜÄÖ at all anymore.
