his pull request addresses an issue encountered when using the Grasp extension with non-English characters. Specifically, an error (UnicodeEncodeError) occurred when attempting to write characters that are not supported by the default encoding on Windows (cp1252).
Changes Made:
Updated the append_org function in the main.py file to explicitly use UTF-8 encoding when writing to the .org file.
Reason for Change:
Using UTF-8 encoding ensures that the application can handle a broader range of characters, including Greek letters and other non-ASCII characters. This enhancement improves the usability of the extension for users who work with scientific articles containing diverse character sets.
How to Test:
Capture a note with non-English characters (e.g., Greek letters like "α-actinin").
Verify that the note is written to the .org file without any errors.
