Package: lshw
Version: 02.17-1.1+b1
Severity: wishlist

Hi,

When using 'lshw -html', there is no meta with the charset used.
I used a system which locale is fr_FR.UTF-8. So, when displaying some
chars like éèàç, they are replaced with the 2 chars equivalent.

e.g. Mémoire système is displayed as Mémoire système

A simple meta tag, like the following does the job:
meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" />
(and today - in 2016 - probable utf-8 is a good default choice )

Regards

Jean-Luc
