Subject: Non-iso-8859-1 chars in ack Pod
Hello Andy, if you use non-iso-8859-1 characters in the ack Pod, then you have to specify the encoding on top of the Pod. That is, just insert =encoding utf-8 And while you're at it, you could replace the "c" in Rezic with a LATIN SMALL LETTER C WITH ACUTE (\x{0107}) :-) Regards, Slaven

Sorry to reopen the ticket, but the encoding issue is still there. You can see the problem if you look at the ack Pod with compliant Pod viewers like Tk::Pod or on html pages which are correctly converted from Pod like at search.cpan.org: http://search.cpan.org/~petdance/ack-1.72/ack The =encoding utf-8 Pod directive would cause some warnings with older Pod tools, but will correct the problem. Regards, Slaven
