Re: Pdesk crashed

Yea, that is helpful.

Give me a few days to think about it, then bug me if I don't respond, I'm 
ridiculously busy at work right now.

Basically, what is happening is that Python is getting a Unicode 
conversion error as it tries to convert the Turkish characters, we may not 
be able to do much about saving if the Palm character set does not accept 
the Turkish character, however, we may be able to do something about PDesk 
not working correctly with Turkish characters in general..

PDesk basically always saves in the Progect Palm Database format, so 
whether it calls it a PDB or not, that is the format.

Now, if the Palm character set does not handle that character, we can't 
really put it into the Progect file. One possible thing we could do would 
be to remove any offending characters, but that would probably make the 
program a great deal less useful for you.


I had done some work to fix this general problem, but I'm not sure if I 
released that code or not, I will have to check.
