[stringtemplate-interest] A problem with a variable name

[Sam Harwell]

The C# versions of the Tool and StringTemplate read input files in auto-detection mode that recognizes byte encoding marks at the beginning of a file. They should support any input encoding, but there may be bugs. The ANTLR port writes UTF-8 files, although this could be controlled through an option and implemented in AntlrTool.getOutputFile as any encoding.

As StringTemplate is built upon ANTLR 2.7.7, which supports only ASCII,
I doubt that there is something you can do beyond adding/renaming to
English names. Seeing that you are using the C# version of ST, the for
now unreleased ST 3.2 may be using ANTLR 3.x, but that's pure
speculation on the fact that the creator did finish a version 3
conversion of the ANTLR grammar as well a C# conversion of the ANTLR
tool. But he has to (not) confirm this himself.
