Btw, I am happy to put $10 towards the feature. I know that it is just a tiny drop, but perhaps others who need to work with non-ascii data will join and all the drops will be eventually sufficient to watter the development :)

I know that it is extremely hard to find time for developing new features, the core devel. team is small and wish list long. But would it take a lot of effort to change pspp in a way that all output would be UTF-8? I imagine that pspp users who manipulate non-ascii-only data are many.
