[GRASS-user] ascii decode special character

[Frank David]

Hi Vero,

Ok for updating.

Concerning the problem of special character in units (kilometer) scale 
bar, we already had a post about that, and encoding in ISO-8859-1 does 
not change anything about that (but solve the problem in text string 
from user). I think the problem comes from grass code...

I met the same problem with v.label.

Cheers,

Frank
