Unicode/utf-8 issues

[Untit1ed]

In my styles I have something like .class{content: ' ✗ ';} after scss -> css conversion I get .class{content: ' ✗ ';}.
I tried to specify encoding in my main scss file by using @charset "UTF-8";, but it seems to be ignored and I don't see it in result css file.

Looks like libsass has problems with unicode... Until libsass supports it (or I end up writing a compiler), I would say the only work around is to just use the unicode escape syntax like \uXXXX

sass/libsass#25
sass/libsass#160

Thanks @darrenkopp , it's weird though, I thought @charset was supposed to fix it.

yeah, that second libsass issue is about @charset being ignored

@Untit1ed give me a few days to think about this, but I think perhaps I could easily pre-parse the scss file and replace any non-ansi characters w/ the \uXXXX replacement value and then feed that into libsass. I'm always a bit fuzzy when it comes to encoding so I'm not exactly sure if I can or not, but I'll definitely try.

@darrenkopp, thanks for your help. It's not a big deal, unicode codes fix the issue for me, I just thought SassyStudio was ignoring @charsets.

Just ran into this issue. +1 for the idea of pre-parsing.
