That's interesting... how are the rules different, and is it only a matter of presentation (which would make it relevant only to output, not input)? Perhaps a better example is knowing whether a given string of Han ideographs is Chinese, Japanese or Korean. However, in this case it is not sufficient to mark the text object itself with a locale, since you can have mixed Chinese text within Japanese text (i.e. multiple indistinguishable locales in the same text). Instead it's probably better to relegate this to a higher level library with general markup and tagging facilities. > 2.

Perhaps: #,(ENCODING "UTF-8" ...) > 3. Use your native language, and rely on local system conventions to > change the default Scheme locale. This as I pointed out with the Turkish "i" problem is a *Bad Thing* which I think everyone agrees we should avoid. -- Alex
