Well, when I save the text with those weird things in a textfile with
UTF-8 encoding they are still there when I open it, so it must be a
character that exists in this character set.
But how do I determine which one it is specificly?
I've put an example here in case someone knows how to do it:

Then I might be able to replace it, who knows...
Many cheers to the one that can do it!
