Special characters handled by trap adapter

Hi folks.

The portuguese language, like many others, has some special characters like á, é, ã, ç.

The trap adapter (the first line at Adapter Platform) doesn't know what to do with them. When it finds any of it at a varbind, it changes all the value by the corresponding hex values.

We found out a parameter at trapd.conf, called ASCII, which when set to TRUE, makes the trap adapter replace just the special characters by a dot (.).

Well, it's better than change everything for non-human characters like hexadecimals but it isn't good enough.

Is there a way to tell trap adapter to use UTF-8 encoding so it can handle these special characters?

Thks,
