Notes
UTF-8
GutenFlash expects UTF-8 files. So for reading a file originally in iso-8859-1, please convert it before to UTF-8 in a shell terminal:
iconv -f iso-8859-1 Reveries.txt -t utf-8 > Reveries.utf8
NameError: name 'init' is not defined
You may want to update the pygtk __init__.py file as suggested in #1718
Preferences
Create your .gutenflash.conf file:
gutenflash --showcfg > ~/.gutenflash.conf
and edit it.
