None. UFS is 8 bit clean, so you can basically use it with any 8bit character set. No encoding is enforced and no conversion is ever applied to file names on UFS. If you set your locale to UTF-8, you can use unicode characters in filenames. For instance: % touch "⡍⠜⠇⠑⠹ ⠺⠁⠎ ⠁⠎ ⠙⠑⠁⠙ ⠁⠎ ⠁ " % ls ⡍⠜⠇⠑⠹ ⠺⠁⠎ ⠁⠎ ⠙⠑⠁⠙ ⠁⠎ ⠁ % rm ⡍⠜⠇⠑⠹\ ⠺⠁⠎\ ⠁⠎\ ⠙⠑⠁⠙\ ⠁⠎\ ⠁\ % (I don't have a clue what that means btw) -- Pieter de Goeje
