Follow-up Comment #6, bug #49222 (project octave):
Andreas,
It turns out that is the OS that makes the difference.
On Linux, after commenting out the call to tidyxml.m at L.198 in xls2oct (in
io-2.4.3), I get the results you're after. Locale settings etc make little
difference.
On Windows I get the results I showed in comment #2
I'm at loss at what to do now.
Octave formally doesn't support double-byte characters; yet the GUI seems to
have no problems there, nor does konsole (I'm running Mageia-5 with KDE).
There are a few ways to proceed:
1. Enclose the calls to tidyxml in a "if (ispc)" block
2. Make calling tidyxml configurable using the "options" arguments in xls2oct
& oct2xls (& ods2oct & oct2ods) with a suitable default (which one?)
3. Same as 2, but with different defaults on Linux (don't call tidyxml) and
Windows (do call tidyxml). Which IMO gets very messy.
Suggestions?
