Incorrect symbol instead of "beta" in window title

The behaviour described in the bug report is either by design, or would be far too complex/time-consuming to be changed

Incorrect symbol instead of "beta" in window title

Post by *siealex »

Is it correct to display "ß" (\ss) instead of "β" (\beta) in the title of the main window and in some other places? These symbols are very similar visually, but nevertheless they are different.
We are not so S.M.A.R.T. as we imagine...

Currently TC doesn't support Unicode in the title bar. Therefore I'm using ß which is part of most encodings. On Unicode systems, I'm explicitly using codepage 1252 to convert to Unicode.

IMHO, there should be "b", or "beta".
Russian/Ukrainial users have pain with "Я" instead of "beta".

It doesn't really matter because users of the release version will never see it.
