Would you like to be the one telling Norwegian student Åshild Bjørnson that you favor the notion that she should waste hours or days installing Boost and some other nix-oriented library and use 'gettext', in order to be able to display her name in her first C++ program?
Or you could only use ASCII in source code, encode the strings in UTF-8 manually using octal escape sequences. #include <iostream> int main() { std::cout << "\303\205shild Bj\303\270rnson\n"; } Not that nice to the eye, but anyway... Regards, Anders Dalvander -- WWFSMD?
