Lua 5.1.4 with Traditional Chinese

["tjhack" <tjhack@...>]

Hi all,

I convert some lua script(it contains chinese character) from simplified chinese to traditional chinese, and now the chinese character is encoding with cp950.

Now I switch my win7 machine locale to zh_TW, and restart. Everything seems okay, the script with traditional chinese character is correct displayed.

But when I complied these script.It is error.Invalid escape string.

for example:

msg="外功系普攻攻擊"
print(msg)

the result is:

外巨t普攻攻擊

Look at the hex of the string, it is

\xa5~\xa5\\\xa8t\xb4\xb6\xa7\xf0\xa7\xf0\xc0\xbb

so it is the lua not escape the string.

Now the problem is, can I solve it? How can I let the script compile success? My source script can not encoding into utf-8, if can, it is esay.‍

Thanks.
