Translation / encoding ?

[Ascadix]

Hello,

I'm trying to translate some MOD to French, but i wonder which is the best suited encoding for the ruleset files ?

Some existing files are UTF-8 w/o BOM,  is it the preferred choice ?

Thanks.

OpenXCom is using a library called YAML to load (and sometimes write)  the data text files. According to the docs, it should support quite a few encodings.
In my opinion, you should use the same encoding as the files from "stock" OpenXcom distribution : if a curious user wants to look or modify files, your files will behave like the others.

UTF-8 w/o BOM is the standard.

Ok, thanks.
