Re: Swedish characters are shown incorrect.

Hi.
Followed the instructions an realized that the problem might be on server side.
Checked the LANG and LC_ALL environment variables and noticed:
LANG=en_US.utf8
LC_ALL=en_US.utf8


Changing these variables to swedish UTF-8 made Winscp show the swedish characters correctly.
LANG=sv_SE.utf8
LC_ALL=sv_SE.utf8

Thank you for the support.
