funky accents on Macs

Hi, guys.

I'm looking for help on getting accented text (é ç è ù ê â etc.) to display properly in a Mac Standalone of my program.

I imagine I have to manually code my program to use UTF-8 or something? Or use alt-codes in my program instead of just typing accented letters?

EDIT: just for the sake of being explicit, accented text from URLs or from actual lines of code is not showing the right characters, I'm generally getting accented letters but not the right ones on Mac systems.

Thanks!

I'm gonna try saving the .txt files to utf-8 and see if that solves the problem.
