[Mutopia-discuss] file encoding should be UTF-8, right?
$ file -i ftp/ScriabinA/O59/prelude/prelude.ly ftp/ScriabinA/O59/prelude/prelude.ly: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Can I run iconv on it, right? This again will break the diff (see previous thread), but it's needed. One more thing to add to the wiki?

The output redirection operator truncates the output file to be empty before iconv is run, so it just converts an empty file.

What you want is recode tex..utf-8 here. The problem is that there are things like avec d\\'efi here which get turned into avec d\éfi because of the doubled backslash. At any rate, you should probably look at _all_ \\ sequences first. There is a lot of TeX stuff in there that will stop working, not just accents. -- David Kastrup ___ Mutopia-discuss mailing list Mutopia-discuss@mutopiaproject.org http://lists.bcn.mythic-beasts.com/mailman/listinfo/mutopia-discuss

Hi,
I might be wrong, but the file has no property like utf8 orascii,
it
is just encoded as such. Ascii is a subset of utf8. If there are only
ascii charachters in the file, there is no reason for the file command
to say anything else but us-ascii. There is no difference between
ascii and utf8, in case there are only ascii characters in the file.
Thanks, I realized it afterwards by trial and error.
I was misled by this diff:

I see now that it is because of LESSCHARSET env. This fixes it:
export LESSCHARSET=utf-8
