I agree that UTF8 solves many problems, but until NOT ALL widely used programs 
support it,
this solution is not complete. My code for foreign locales is just a temporary 
hack, but it don't hurt
anybody and helps those who (like me) are still using programs that feel better 
under a 8-bit
encoding. Nevertheless, this change is only a minor detail in my patch.
