Hello to all. I would like to ask if there is utf8 support in the Squeak VM currently. I know that in the past only 8-bit encoding was supported by the virtual machine. Is it the same nowadays? I am considering the addition of the greek language which requires utf8 to be supported by the VM.
UTF-8 is supported. The "etoys" script now runs the VM using the "- encoding UTF-8" option.
Nice...birbilis, why don't you try to open the image from "ellak" inside the OLPC having the new UTF-8 enabled VM and see how it goes?
