Hi all, When trying to render a dot file with utf-8 encoded characters, org babel complained about the encodings. I cross checked ob-go.el at line 107-108 and made an identical patch to make utf-8 dot files work: vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv diff --git "a/elpa\\org-9.1.14\\ob-dot.el" "b/\\emacs261\\share\\emacs\\26.1\\lisp\\org\\ob-dot.el" index 0fe50d4..31e0a4f 100644 --- "a/elpa\\org-9.1.14\\ob-dot.el" +++ "b/\\emacs261\\share\\emacs\\26.1\\lisp\\org\\ob-dot.el" @@ -69,8 +69,6 @@ This function is called by `org-babel-execute-src-block'."

Hope to see it in next version if you think it's OK.
