AppleScript and Leopard

Hello

One more problem.

I often use french words to name my variables. Doing that, I'm free of possible conflicts with applications or OSAXen.
As French use accented chars, I enclose varnames between vertical bars.


What an hoorific discovery :
when I open my scripts written under 10.4 in Leopard, every varname of the shape |pénélope| is replaced by a pair of vertical bars ||.
Yes, the enclosed characters are gone.


The first time I encountzered this behaviour, I thought: what a fool, you cut the enclosed chars.

But the behaviour surface in every scripts so, I'm sure that I didn't made this error in so much scripts.

At this time I just got it on scripts stored as scripts, or packages.
Happily, it seems that those stored as applescript (text) aren't changed.
So, I will return to 10.4 and save as applescript(s) those which are available only as scpt or app ones.


Is it the normal behaviour ?
