Copy / paste problem
 
Hi!

When I am opening a text file with xfv then it's looking good but if I paste it in the "spreadsheet" in libreoffice or gnumeric then it looks like this:
Mihai Dr�ghicioiu
But it should like this:
Mihai Drăghicioiu

text file is in ISO-8859 encoding

And it is same when I open the text file directly with libreoffice.
Any help please?

Can you type the "ă" character into LibreOffice or Gnumeric?

It might help to know what distro/version of Linux you are using in case there are version-related tips and tricks.

I can type but I cannot copy and paste from text file to spreadsheet.

I used XFV for view of files and looks like XFV doesn't work so good for copy from ISO-8859 and paste in other programs.
I tested with gedit now and it work good me now.
