Editing Troubleshooting (Script Authors) (section)

== Character set ==

Various issues can arise when working in the wrong character set. In general, writers are advised to use the standard utf-8 format, which isn't supported in the latest version of Windows Notepad. Other workarounds include using JavaScript to parse characters which would otherwise be invalid in other formats, from integer values.

<pre class='sample-good'>
var values = [72, 101, 108, 108, 111, 44, 32, 87, 111, 114, 108, 100, 33];
alert(String.fromCharCode.apply(String, values));
</pre>

<!-- 4.0 + files = fail
== Installing from /tmp ==

If you try to install a user script located in the /tmp directory, Greasemonkey will not bring up the install dialog, and the Install button at the top of the page will not do anything.  To solve this, simply move the .user.js file to another directory, such as your home directory.
