I am not sure how this is occurring, however, my socket daemon on Linux - is launched by hand ./program is able to send to the socket:
Socket.Write(#218+#196+#191); And the terminal (any) will display the single highbit characters. If systemctl start myprogram... that same call sends '???'. Same binary, not recompiled or anything. Then I do systemctl stop myprogram, and ./program connect to it, and I get the single highbit characters again. I have googled everything I could think of for FPC and SYSTEMCTL, to see if either have documented this - without success. Since you guys know what the compiler is producing, and all these tricks you guys do for UTF8, CP437, etc... I decided to give up and ask you guys - any idea what is going on? * The other challenge is, this just started a week ago. the myprogram.service file has not been modified, nothing for the OS had been modified, I just noticed one day - the code I use for UTF8 auto detection was showing ???? ... and then ran my 8bit test, and noticed ever character 0x80+ displays as '?'. Thanks, Ozz
