Hi,

during the move to version 3 of Jabref the file encoding of my database got 
mixed up. In V2 I encoded my database in UTF-8. When I moved to V3 I opened my 
database in V3 and saved it under a new name. I don't know how it happened 
(can't reproduce it and may be due to intermediate mixed use of V2 and V3, or 
manually changing the encoding), but today I noticed that the encoding of the 
copy of my database was ISO-8859-15 and some characters were displayed 
incorrectly such as:

Gervais, HélÃÂ?ne and Belin, Pascal and Boddaert, Nathalie and Leboyer, 
Marion and Coez, Arnaud and Sfaello, Ignacio and Barthélémy, Catherine 
and Brunelle, Francis and Samson, Yves and Zilbovicius, MÃÂ?nica

which was 

Gervais, Hélène and Belin, Pascal and Boddaert, Nathalie and Leboyer, Marion 
and Coez, Arnaud and Sfaello, Ignacio and Barthélémy, Catherine and Brunelle, 
Francis and Samson, Yves and Zilbovicius, Mônica

before. 

Are there pre-existing solutions that can turn symbols like "é" back to "é", 
or better even to turn them into the appropriately escaped latex-equivalents 
such as "\'{e}", or is my text editor's find and replace function my only help?


Thanks a lot,

Sebastian
