+ # - The environment variables LANG, LC_CTYPE, LC_ALL are not set by

+ # "... all code that calls BSD system routines should ensure

+ # encoding. All BSD system functions expect their string
+ # parameters to be in UTF-8 encoding and nothing else."
+ # It also says
+ # "An additional caveat is that string parameters for files,
+ # paths, and other file-system entities must be in canonical
+ # UTF-8. In a canonical UTF-8 Unicode string, all decomposable
+ # characters are decomposed ..."
+ # but this is not true: You can pass non-decomposed UTF-8 strings
+ # to file system functions, and it is the OS which will convert
+ # them to decomposed UTF-8 before accessing the file system.

+ # - However, other applications are free to use different encodings:
+ # - xterm uses ISO-8859-1 by default.
