[Ktechlab-devel] Special characters in contexthelp

[David Saxton]

I've committed a "fix" to SVN, whereby the contexthelp editor replaces 
instances of non-latin1 characters with their corresponding HTML code (e.g. 
"Ӓ").

So this should fix the ohm and infinite symbols. But umlauts come under 
"latin1" characters, and so definitely should be saved fine. It is possible 
that the html used requires the character encoding specified somewhere...
