Hello,
My environment is set to use UTF-8. I produce a file in UTF-8 encoding. It works correctly on the terminal but medit doesn't show it correctly.
$ echo ééé > test -> ééé
A similar issue on

Thanks for help.

    It probably decided that the file is in latin encoding. Go to File > Reopen Using Encoding > UTF-8, that should fix it.

      if i select Auto-detect i get text with incorrect characters http://pastie.org/pastes/9810315/text

      ex:
      é = é
      à = Ã
      î = î
