[Gambas-user] gtk error when input greek letters in textbox

[Dimitris Anogiatis]

Demosthenes,

I think it is because Greek letters are unicode characters
and unicode characters count as double and therefore any split will
be difficult to work with the usual string manipulation functions

The recommended way to split a string including unicode characters
according to the documentation, in this page

http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/cat/string

is to use the String class.

The String Class is described in this part of the documentation

http://www.gambasdoc.org/help/comp/gb/string

I hope this helps
Keep up the good work

Regards,
Dimitris
