Hello!

I have a small problem, which is that I am french, and we use characters like é, à, ç, etc.

When I compile and upload my arduino program which contain such letters in strings, once viewed, for example, in any serial monitor program, it will show as for example "ç" for "ç".

I had this exact same problem with the Arduino IDE, but I solved it by setting preproc.substitute_unicode to false, in preferences.txt. After doing this change, and recompile/reupload my arduino program, I was able to see those characters correctly, in any serial monitor program.

I was wondering if there is a way to do the same thing with Visual Micro, or maybe it's a bug and in this case, this is a suggestion

Thanks in advance

Yes, maybe I didn't explained correctly, but it's when I compile/upload with VM, then every serial monitors (be it Arduino IDE's, VM's, Termite...) will display "ç" instead of "ç".

If I compile/upload with Arduino IDE (with the setting modified as said), then those serial monitors will show correctly "ç".

Try it

I can't find an option "File -> Save as" in Visual Studio Community. If I open my sketch with Notepad and Save with Unicode (also tried with UTF-8) formatting, that makes no difference at all.

I really would like a fix for this please

Thanks.
