My Workbench saved the .pro-files in UTF8. I don�t know what idl does
when I execute them. My guess is that the idl-interpreter expects
ISO-Encoded files and thus is messing up with the UFT8-Files.

After setting the default to ISO. The � was broken in the Workbench,
too. After I corrected this and saved the file it worked.
