Bad characters in editwidget.cpp

[kyle-sylvestre]

I get "error: character too large for enclosing character literal type" when building on macOS. These two characters got incorrectly converted incorrectly to UTF-8:

PopLib/PopLib/widget/editwidget.cpp

Line 251 in 3ccce94

(((unsigned int)theChar >= (unsigned int)('�')) && ((unsigned int)theChar <= (unsigned int)('�'))) ||

It should be:

 (((unsigned int)theChar >= (unsigned int)(L'À')) && ((unsigned int)theChar <= (unsigned int)(L'ÿ'))) ||

Will also forward this to electro and moon. Thanks for pointing that out!

Hi @kyle-sylvestre . So I added your code, but something feels off about this whole thing.
Your code is actually correct, but the current compiler versions on my PC are treating your code as UTF8, not ANSI, and this is only happening on my own PC, and nobody else seems to have this issue. Windows does not understand extended ASCII/ANSI characters on my computer, and must explicitly be told to use UTF8 with that flag on if we were to make my own projects or modify community made ones. So for some reason, I actually had to remove it on my end to solve this problem, but the other problem is, this is actually incorrect. My computer specifically is very weird about not supporting extended ANSI, but your code will be kept as it is the correct code.
