Hi,

This is TeXExec | version 6.2.1 - 1997-2009 - PRAGMA ADE/POD

I am writing a presentation like this in French:

\language[fr] \mainlanguage[fr] %\enableregime[utf-8] \enableregime[latin1] \usemodule[pre-fuzzy] \usemodule[amsl] \useMPlibrary[txt]

my terminal encoding is set to UTF-8.

Running texec on it yields a bunch of weird characters where the accents should be.

What am I doing wrong?

Please try to prepare a minimal example that shows the problem, not just the header. What is the main reason against using UTF-8? Mojca
