[Octave-bug-tracker] [bug #49222] octave-io 2.4.3: xls2oct with "OCT" interface lost the ability to read german umlauts or °

[Markus Mützel]

Follow-up Comment #11, bug #49222 (project octave):

Philip,

thank you for reviewing and accepting so quickly.

Would it be OK to pass an additional argument to tidyxml to indicate in which
direction the conversion should be done (UTF-8 to Unicode or vice versa)?
Matlab has the functions native2unicode and unicode2native which can be used
to do these conversions. Maybe we could add functions for utf82unicode and
unicode2utf8 until the former are available in core Octave.
If you can still wait a few days with the release, I will have a look whether
I can come up with something.
