special characters in CLAN

[Margot Rozendaal]

Dear CLAN-users,

Hopefully someone can help me with the following problem. I want to do some
analysis on Swedish Childes-files. When I open these files, typical Swedish
characters as ä, å and ö appear as ¥ and Ã, or a combination of both.
Although it is possible for me to read the transcripts like this, it would
definitely be more convenient to read the transcript with the usual
characters. Can someone tell me how to get the letters ä, å and ö into the
transcripts or is there an in error in these files?

Thank you very much,

Margot Rozendaal
