Use of non-ASCII characters in portfiles should not be a problem. Portfiles are defined as being UTF-8 files and they display fine for me as such in the terminal. Many other ports use UTF-8 characters, such as smart quotes, and I don't think we should attempt to go back to using ASCII only because it's just so limiting. _______________________________________________ macports-dev mailing list [email protected] https://lists.macosforge.org/mailman/listinfo/macports-dev
