Close to that: YOUR shell assumes that. From the default MacOS X installation all encodings can be set that are shown by locale -m in terminal. Often used (at least temporarily) is also ISO8859-1 by users coming from Win, using documents from their archives. We cannot even assume UTF-8 for the default-installation Mac user, only for the default-installation-default-charset user (from Silicon valley). _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
