I'm seeing LOTSA characters from Latin-1 in the source code <http:// www.unicode.org/charts/PDF/U0080.pdf> (especially in people's names!)

You wanna see name? Then use "svn log [src-path]" or "svn blame [src-path]" ;-)

Not interested in who to "blame" :-) The "name" reference was more into things like name of people with german umlauts :-) :-)

For sure, it is not me, I use UTF-8:

$locale
LANG=es_NI.UTF-8

Then you've never used the SHELL_ESCAPE in XSPs for using Python bindings (or whatever that is) :-)

Seriously talking, it depends on a number of things, not only your platform encoding, but also on your editor's, your compiler and so on... The good thing about XML is the <?xml version="1.0" encoding="xxxx"?> sorting out 99.9% of the problems, but that said, the same problem can pop up here and there...

We should make sure that whenever code is written, any character outside the "Basic-Latin" Unicode spec <http://www.unicode.org/ charts/ PDF/U0000.pdf> is correctly encoded as \uXXXX, otherwise things are going to start breaking... :-D

+1 and this is why I sent my first mail related to this issue:

Anyone volunteers to write a little script looking for BYTEs (not characters) in our source code that are outside of the 00-7F (0-127) range?
