ASCII is a subset of UTF-8, so there's no problem with using the ASCII quote characters in that situation. It might be different if the locale was one which doesn't normally use "..." for quotations. E.g. using «...» in a French locale or 「...」 in a Japanese locale might be reasonable. But the error message was quite clearly in English. If it was using non-ASCII characters in the C/POSIX locale, that would be an unequivocal bug. As it is, it's merely a poor choice. -- Glynn Clements <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> _______________________________________________ grass-user mailing list grass-user@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/grass-user
