Issue with voice name contains accented letters

Hi All,
I get an issue when I use a French TTS voices when the name of the voice contains accented letter (Amélie, Aurélie)
That happens with Ventura 13.5
No problème on Mojave which doesn't use accented letters (Amelie instead Amélie)
I tried put urlencode(VoiceName) without success.
An idea ?

Best regards

Jean-Marc

Well, for starters I would jalouse that MacOS uses Unicode.

Ce n'est pas bon:

Code: Select all

on mouseUp
   put revSpeechVoices() into fld "fGLASOVE"
end mouseUp

C'est très drôle (avec ou sans accents!)

Possibly the problem is that Apple engineers are not very good at French:

Cher Monsieur Cooke,

C'est exécrable, vous n'avez pas de francophones instruits en Californie.

If you’re referring to Chinese characters appearing, you probably need to add the correct UTF encoding? I.e textEncode, NOT urlEncode…
