However, you can expect the `utf8` pragma to be fixed – though that won’t help you right now. The `encoding` pragma OTOH is irretrievably broken. (There is also consensus that source files in arbitrary encodings are not a sane idea anyway; if you need more than ASCII, your code should be in UTF-8 and you should `use utf8`. So no there is no replacement for that aspect of the `encoding` pragma coming down the pipe either, now or ever.) Regards, -- Aristotle Pagaltzis // <http://plasmasturm.org/>
