The execution of a piece of code by pressing F9 (run selection) in the editor
does not produce the same result as running the whole script or typing the
command the console.
This leads to wrong result.

This only occurs when encoding is not UTF-8 (I only tested with Windows-1252
encoding).

The code to be executed is :   s_xx='é';

Hereafter, the results for the 3 cases (xx = F9, console or script)
