i dont think that's UTF-8. unicode sure, but not UTF-8. at any rate, how exactly do you suggest differentiating between someone doing echo $'\344\270\255' and echo 中 ? a script that echos unprintable byte sequences that happen to form valid unicode sequences should not be displayed as such. > Or OK, to be fair, even the ASCII should come back as octal escapes. that's flat out illogical. printable ASCII is exactly the same in every character set (iso/unicode/etc..). -mike
