There's a bug in editbox:

If you try to use nick/channelname completion (tab key), any eventually UTF8 encoded text will be changed to "?" (question mark) symbols.

Example:

write: /msg テスト
go back with cursor to add the missing name, type something and then TAB key -> results in /msg testuser ???

Looks like this board double encodes the extended characters. Where to file this bug report? ^_^

The editbox doesn't support UTF-8, this isn't a bug. There's an option to encode outgoing text in the View > Font dialog, maybe that will help you.

Hum... Probably "Editbox" then is the wrong word? The box where I can input what next is going to be sent to the channel (my chat). The input box on bottom of my channel and query windows.

It seems to support UTF8 as I can input UTF8 chars there which get send correctly (with all UTF8 options enabled in/outgoing encode). It would be no sense to not support utf8 in this line as you need to input your UTF8 to be sent somewhere? Or have I misunderstood something?
