Research direction
Start by reproducing the problem with showPrompt() and Swedish characters such as å, ä, and ö. Trace how the dialog text is encoded and identify where it becomes U+FFFD; done means these characters appear correctly in the dialog boxes.

Description
I ran into problems using Swedish letters in the dialog boxes such as the showPrompt(). The letters (e.g. å ä ö Å Ä Ö) are replaced by the unicode U+FFFD replacement character. I have tried changing locale to US, converting the text to UTF-8 etc. but have had no success.
