Hello, I have been porting a part of a program to GIO for file monitoring. By this move I also switched g_file_get/set_contents to the ones available in the GFile object, g_file_load/replace_contents. At the first run I was surprised that it didn't work (of course errors may always be introduced ;-)). Well looks like the code was ok. The problem is that I read and save files with utf-8 characters and that is kind of broken here. I reproduced the problem on two machines, one with glib-2.20.1 and another with glib 2.20.3. I ran a smaller test case, one in C as my program and another with Python. Turns out the one in Python doesn't reproduce the problem and I really have no clue what is going on. The test cases in C and Python are attached. I hope I'm not the only one reproducing the problem :) Mike
