           Summary: Kompare fails to render CP1252 characters
           Product: kompare
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Chakra
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: viewpart
        AssignedTo: kompare-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: adriyetichaves at gmail.com


Version:           unspecified (using Devel)

When opening differences between files with CP1252 encoding, Kompare fails to
render non-ASCII characters as expected.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
This is what I do:
1. Open with KDE SVN an SVN repository with Windows files (DOS/Windows end of
line, and CP1252 encoding).
2. With Kate, which detects the encoding of the file fine, I add an special
character to a random line of the file: ’.
3. I select this file, and choose to open differences between local changes and
server revision in Kompare.

Actual Results:  
When rendering the difference, Kompare shows the character as an unknown
character (interrogation symbol over a black background).

Expected Results:  
It should render the character as it is: ’.

Kompare 4.0.1
KDE SC 4.7.4
