commit b0ff61f9d5750c44f151af129569c7f6bac8bc86 Author: FRIGN <[email protected]> Date: Sun Jan 18 19:36:13 2015 +0100
Add column to mark UTF-8 support
One major milestone is to have the sbase-tools supporting UTF-8.
Tools like cut(1) with the -n flag don't make sense otherwise.
And while the gnu coreutils cut(1) blatantly ignores such an
important aspect, we will not tolerate this madness and mark it
as a TODO in the main README.
Since most tools inherently support UTF-8 anyway, this just concerns
tools which mangle with text or search in it in special ways.
