[EP-tech] Diacrtic Encoding in EPrints Perl Programs (eprints_fields_automatic.pl)

Hello,


I am definitely not a programmer, as the following question probably shows:

 

In the /data/eprints3/archives/Ecole/cfg/cfg.d/eprints_fields_automatic.pl program, we would like to insert our institution name by default:

 

                                                # This is a handy place to make monographs and thesis default to

                                                # your insitution

                                                #

                                                $eprint->set_value( "institution", "Ecole Polytechnique de Montreal" );    

 

 

The problem is that we have 2 French diacritics in the name : École Polytechnique de Montréal.

 

I have tried several variations of coding the É & é with 0 success…..

 

We have upgraded a test version to EPrints 3.3.12 [Schema 3.3.4], running on RedHat Linux version 2.6.32-504.3.3.el6.x86_64 (virtual server).

 

Thanks!
