The Linux > server encodes it as UTF-8, while Windows is using something strange, > probably Windows-1252, where 0x92 is a curly quote and 0x95 is a bullet point. > A client can't know what encoding the server used, because the Content-Type > is just text/plain with no encoding. > Ideally I would like it to use UTF-8 always, so that the client doesn't have > to do extra work to decode it. The attached patch does that, and declares it. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.
