LC_CTYPE=UTF-8

2020-06-25 Thread Hans Åberg
MacOS sets as default LC_CTYPE=UTF-8, not appearing in the 'locale -a' list. Then some software interprets this as though the locale is C/POSIX, disregards the UTF-8 encoding, and converts all non-ASCII (high bit set) char's into octal escape sequences. What is the correct interpretation here?
