    _______________________________________________________

Details:

When opening a simple .m file containing special characters such as "é, à,
ê, è, ç, ï", saved either in Matlab or notepad, octave editor displays the
following character instead : �.

For instance, the following code, saved with either notepad or matlab 2011b,
creates this issue when displayed in the editor, but the characters are
displayed properly on the figure once executed even though the editor displays
a bunch of � :


figure(1)
xlabel('éàêèçï')


The issue is strangely reversed when written and saved directly in octave
editor. The same code is then properly displayed in octave editor, but on the
plot we see the attached image file.

Octave GUI and windows 7 x64 are in french. Also on present on release 4.0.1
