I wonder what the best approach is to getting it included. I also
think its a very valuable contribution. I think we need to first get
the Tcl/Tk only changes done, since that was the mandate of the pd-
devel 0.41 effort. Then once Miller has accepted those changes, then
we can start with the C modifications there. So how to proceed next,
I think is based on how eager you are, Bryan, to getting this in a
regular build.
One option is making a pd-devel-utf8 branch, another is posting these
patches to the patch tracker and waiting for Miller to make his next
update with the Pd-devel Tcl-Tk code.
Maybe we can get Miller to chime in on this topic.

moin folks,
I believe I've finally got pd-devel 0.41-4 using UTF-8 across the
board.
So far, I've tested message boxes & comments (g_rtext), as well as
symbol atoms, and all seems good. I think we can still expect
goofiness
if someone names an abstraction using a multibyte character when the
filesystem isn't UTF-8 encoded (raw 8-bit works for me here too),
but I
really don't want to open that particular can of worms.
So I guess I have 2 questions:
(1) what should I call the generic UTF-8 source files? (see my
other post)
(2) shall I commit these changes to pd-devel/0.41-4, or somewhere
else,
or just post a diff (ca. 33k, ought to be easier to read now; I've
tried
to follow the indentation conventions of the source files I
modified)?
marmosets,
Bryan
