unable to read umlaute or foreign letters using fgets

2006-12-27, 7:09 pm

Hi,

I am using fgets to retrive data in a file. However, some words
within the data file contain letters like ä, ö, ü. Using fgets to
capture those words containing such letters results in having a
square character in replacement of the umlaute letter.

And the read data could not be compared using strcmp and strmatch
because of the above situation.

Does anyone has any advice for me?

Thank you,

CW
