Hello,

I need to add three Swedish cities to KStars (see: 
http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=83125).

However, two of the city names contain non-ascii characters, and when I 
paste their names into the Cities.dat file, they are not being encoded 
properly.  What I mean is, other non-ascii characters in the file 
appear as one or more "garbage" characters, but are rendered correctly 
in KStars.  When I add these new cities, the non-ascii characters are 
rendered correctly in the Cities.dat file, but are not rendered at all 
in KStars.  I hope that makes sense.

Anyway, I have no idea how to encode these non-ascii characters 
correctly in the Cities.dat file.  Can anyone give me a clue?

TIA,
Jason
