Description Mathieu Saby 2025-02-25 13:02:53 UTC
Reports in CSV should include BOM  (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Byte_order_mark), so that Excel detect the UNICODE encoding and display properly non ASCII characters.

Maybe it could be an option activable with syspref, or a new type of format selectable by the user (CSV / CSV_BOM).
Comment 1 Mathieu Saby 2025-02-25 13:03:32 UTC
The same remark applies to other CSV files downloadable from Kpha, not only reports.
