I'm working on a library in .Net to communicate with NUT servers as a client. I'm at the point of setting up a socket to send and receive information from a NUT server, but I've realized that I don't actually know what encoding I should use when sending the raw bytes. ASCII? UTF-8? Something else? I want to assume that it's UTF-8, but just in case there's some sort of edge-case, I'd like to know for sure.
The vocabulary of commands from the client and responses from upsd are all in basic ASCII which is the same as UTF-8 in the first 127 characters. As long as you stick to characters 0-127, UTF-8 is ok. Future expansion beyond character code 127 has yet to be considered. So far no-one has requested accents on ups names.
