String in the editor's search field turns into garbage after reopening editor

Reported by: ziv Owned by: andrew_b
Priority: major Milestone: 4.7.5

Description

Actually, I'm not sure if it's a bug or rather an enhancement.

How to reproduce:

  1. open a file in mcedit;
  2. change encoding to any national one that is different from your system's locale (let's say, locale is ru_RU.utf8 and the file is in cp1251) using Alt+E;
  3. search for some string in your language (Russian in our case) using F7;
  4. exit mcedit;
  5. open the same file or any other in mcedit;
  6. press F7 to search.

You see garbage instead of your previous searched string. And you have to press Ctrl+Down to get it back. It's very annoying.

Replying to gotar:

Couldn't reproduce it with ISO-8859-2 and CP1250.

Anyone with ru_RU.utf8 to test?

You shoud try yourself with e.g. KOI8-R and CP1251, this might be UTF-related due to multibyte all russian characters.

No, this is not utf-related. It is always reproducable bug. There is an incorrect charset conversion in edit_search_cmd().
