May I suggest, that it would much simpler for the world to actually fix a few libs in a few conservative OS'es? There's nothing that makes the notion of one-byte-per-character somewhat universal. Just an arbitrary desision that you want to stick to because of the way computing history has developed. Why not two characters or four? Regards, -- [a]
