Great if we don't need to specify it ... In that case I guess we need a mechanism to warn if an older compiler is being used, or if someone uses fexec-charset to specify a different charset. Or perhaps, we could just let people suffer the consequences without any warning ... but document in the GNUstep FAQ that users must not specify a charset other than UTF-8 (or use an older compiler) and try to use string literals containing non-ascii characters. _______________________________________________ Gnustep-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/gnustep-dev
