If you could try the macintosh version of Sophie we would like to see  
if keyboard input for accent (czech) characters is wrong, or not?

Yes we know the Linux version is broken, it's just the same VM   
everyone uses, but we do want to confirm that the windows and  
macintosh version
work properly. That includes typing of course, but also should include  
unicode characters in book names and media files.

Actually try the latest developer version at

http://www.geeksrus.com/sophie_builds/Sophie08020601.zip

Please let us know if it does not work for you.

In the macintosh carbon VM to set different features refer to
http://www.smalltalkconsulting.com/html/squeakinfoplist.html

I traditionally ship the VM with MacRoman because otherwise the Squeak  
file system tools get broken.

However Squeak based systems like Plopp, Sophie,  Scratch, flip the  
system to UTF-8.

Perhaps I should set the next release to UTF-8 and let people fix the  
file system tools...
