No, the default is windows-1252 (checked by testing with a fresh profile). > See > https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Guide/Localizations_and_character_encodings which says that the default is windows-1252. BTW, this page says: "New-authored locale-native UTF-8 content is expected to declare its encoding, in which case the fallback encoding does not participate in the processing of content." but I don't see how one can declare the encoding for text files read locally with the "file:" URL scheme. -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <https://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <https://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / AriC project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
