XYplorer Beta Club

Hi,

I have a UTF8 file containing the pound (£) character. If I preview (C-F11) the file, the £ character renders as Â.

How can I fix please?

Renders fine here with the current beta...

Output of the menu entry: Help - Various Information?

For me it renders as £. If I convert the file to UTF-8-BOM (using Notepad++), then XY previews it correctly.

Configuration | Preview | Preview | Text preview | [x] UTF-8 auto-detection
is ticked?

No, it wasn't.

That is the answer. When it's ticked, the preview displays the £ symbol correctly. Thank you.
