I understand the risk of starting another holy war, but if utf8 were *the* scheme encoding, it would not need be explicitly specified. There is a problem of legacy code, of course, but if one needs to insert the character encoding information into every file, wouldn't it be as easy to recode the file into utf8 instead? --andrew _______________________________________________ r6rs-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.r6rs.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/r6rs-discuss
