FWIW - I wrote the apr utf8 functions a decade ago. It's really irrelevant to my underlying question ;-) It turns out '/' is the value 63 in utf-7, although we can presume there are no utf-7 filesystems, I've never heard of it being used for storage, only transport. > You're right that shift-JIS in particular needs attention paid to it. > Locally, I try very > hard not to support any non-unicode character set, but I understand that's a > luxury that > APR does not have. This isn't a question of APR actually; I'm offering this back to the BSD and to the the GNU worlds as well. BSD's was completely bogus with respect to i18n (it seems linux 2.6 got this mostly correct). Was hoping one of the filesystem gurus had some insight on the 'messier' encodings.
