 Replying to [ticket:3389 lrntct]:
 > I've a workspace with two vector files. Saving it worked fine until I
 added a non-ASCII character in a WHERE field:
 >
 >
 > {{{
 > d.vect map=Localidades_Urbanas_Estudio at PERMANENT where="b_Municipio IN
 ('Saltillo', 'Río Bravo')" width=1
 > }}}
 >
 > The display function works correctly, but when I try to save the
 workspace, I receive the following error:
 >
 > {{{
 > Writing current settings to workspace file failed.
