Re: Where is André ? André says "goodbye"

[Matthias Rebbe]

To be honest, I didn‘t read your post after reading the topic. I really thought you were asking where Andre ( Garcia) is. (A longtime member of the LC community. )
Perhaps a more meaningful term would have led to more answers.

But re-reading your post, it looks like you're doing the textEncode at the wrong time. Storing encoded text in LC can give unexpected results, instead try putting the textEncode function directly into the line that writes the file.
