-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA1 Hi,
I'm trying to package a simple tool that wants a Japanese string in its man page. It would appear that currently, man pages use fixed encodings that vary depending on which locale's man page is being looked up; English uses ISO-8859-1, so it's not possible to use kanji in one. Various people on -mentors suggested that this was wrong as there was a plan in place to convert to using UTF-8 throughout, and that I should bring this up here; I can't find any references to such a plan on the 'net --- is there one? What's its status? And what should I do to get my man page working? - -- ┌── dg@cowlark.com ─── http://www.cowlark.com ─────────────────── │ │ "There does not now, nor will there ever, exist a programming language in │ which it is the least bit hard to write bad programs." --- Flon's Axiom -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.4.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: Using GnuPG with Mozilla - http://enigmail.mozdev.org iD8DBQFGvMl/f9E0noFvlzgRAioVAJwMML+AIgAHL/rqeAM2NTuwAt4w0ACgvMHi kRU0y2BztTvV0BXQNmi80+8= =0pqp -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
