Finally my (odd) questions are: Why does MapServer do everything right?
How is the encoding determined? Can I see somewhere which encoding is
used by MapServer?
MapServer has no way to tell the encoding of a shapefile. However it can
usually deal with data in either UTF-8 or in the native encoding of your
TTF font without specifying any encoding in the LABEL. In those cases,
it does not try to figure the encoding, it just lets the bytes go
straight through without looking at them (and TrueType does the rest).
Err... I mean FreeType does the rest...
