Which is meaningless, since under Unix, the locale is not related to the OS, but to the process: one can have a shell session with UTF-8 locales and another shell session with ISO-8859-* locales. Unfortunately the svn client doesn't remember which one was used in the first place. The consequence is that if the user works with different locales, things go wrong (even if the user doesn't execute any command with non-ASCII characters in its arguments). -- Vincent Lefèvre <vinc...@vinc17.net> - Web: <http://www.vinc17.net/> 100% accessible validated (X)HTML - Blog: <http://www.vinc17.net/blog/> Work: CR INRIA - computer arithmetic / Arénaire project (LIP, ENS-Lyon)
