python-ogre & unicode strings

when I write smtg like this:

loading_text=cegui.WindowManager.getSingleton().getWindow("loading_text");
loading_text.text=u'UÄ

You might wanna look into ogre.UTFString() function.

(I just suspect that have something to do with what u're trying to achieve. no garantee here.)

nope, that didn't do the trick. there isa bug in python-ogre, which seems to inject each char into a cegui.String, where it should first unpack a utf8 string and then insert chars. I'll file a bug report.

You should have a look through the Google groups (http://groups.google.com/group/python-ogre-developers) as there is a current work around..

More Specifically about 3/4's of the way through http://groups.google.com/group/python-ogre-developers/browse_thread/thread/50704ee29bdacd57

yeah I know, I wrote that topic but I also posted a message here as well. any progress btw? I'd gladly help but other then diagnosing and debuging the problem, I don't know how else I could.
