Right. > Do you need real UTF-8 reader names? Not at all. I just need my code to Do The Right Thing™ with the strings it's given. If they are UTF-8 then I can just print them through my normal 21st century output handling (in error and status messages), but if they're legacy charsets then I'll need to know *what* legacy charset they are and convert it. > > But what about other IFD drivers ? > > No idea. I think this is something that pcsclite basically defines, and the IFD drivers ought to follow. Either you declare that it's all UTF-8, everywhere (which is the sane option in 2014), or you declare that it follows $LC_CTYPE (which I think would parallel the Windows SCardListReadersA function). -- dwmw2
