KDevelop + Message&Merge

Hi,
i have add translations to my kde-project and want to make "message&merge", but then i get the error, that a line in *.cpp is not a ASCII. (the line is i18n("&Datei") )
In Kdevelop i have defined, that all is saved in iso-8859-15 and linux linebreak, ans there is no option to say save in ascii.
What must i do?

Thanks,
Lykurg

RE: KDevelop + Message&Merge

i18n("&Datei") surely looks ascii to me (although it doesn't really look like an English word, but that's another problem!).

Are you sure about the guilty line? Isn't there one with a special character, like an umlaut or something like that?

i18n() takes a UTF8 string, so if you want to put a special character (e.g. in someone's name, you have to use "recode l1..u8" to convert it to utf8).
