Whenver I try to add Unicode characters in my script it automatically erases or doesnt recognize it

By unicode char I mean:

Is there any way to fix this?

You aren't saving your file in unicode format.

Internally au uses unicode. For file operations add 128 to the mode parameter

FileOpen ( "filename", mode )

"128 = Use Unicode UTF8 reading and writing mode. Reading does not override existing BOM"

[Richard Robertson]

The problem is that the user is probably putting unicode characters in the au3 file and not saving the file in unicode format. By default, many editors save to ASCII.

can you please clarify, i want to use these UNICODE characters....are you saying I have to insert something in script to allow it to accept UNICODE?

Help please ^.^

how would I go about editing files in UNICODE format?

Your Editor has to support editing/saving unicode characters. In Scite switch to "File => Encoding => UTF-8". In Wordpad "Save As Type = Unicode Text Document".
