Comment 14 for bug 393057

Here using:

Qt: 4.4.3
KDE: 4.1.85 (KDE 4.1.85 (KDE 4.2 Beta2))
kdelibs svn rev. 899634 / kdebase svn rev. 899635
on ArchLinux x86_64 - Kernel 2.6.27.8

With a new session.
- Open KWrite for the first time (new empty file)
Accented characters works OK
- Without saving or doing anything else, select Encoding/Autodetect
Accented characters doesn't work.
- Save the file
Accented characters works OK

After closing KWrite

Opening KWrite for a second or third time doesn't trigger the bug (but sometimes and seems to be random, accented characters will not work after an encoding change on new files (or maybe I'm pressing the " ' " key too fast and making that sign to appear) )

UPDATE:

I think I get something interesting. This crashes depends on if you selected the encoding X in the running KDE session.

Example.
Open KWrite, Accented characters work. Switch to Encoding "A". Accented characters doesn't work. Close KWrite

Open KWrite, Accented characters work. Switch to Encoding "A". Accented characters still works. Close KWrite

Open KWrite, Accented characters work. Switch to Encoding "B". Accented characters doesn't work. Close KWrite

Open KWrite, Accented characters work. Switch to Encoding "B". Accented characters still works. Close KWrite

and so on ...

(So I suppose that this bugs appears always on the first KWrite session because no encoding switch was done before)

Can anyone else confirm this ?
