[Bug-gnu-arch] utf-8 in my-ids |

Hi,
The first thing I did after installing tla was, of course, setting my
my-id. To my surprise, my last name does not make a valid my-id, because
of basically this code:
int
arch_valid_id (t_uchar * id)
{
t_uchar * non_empty_marker;
/* This isn't exactly the same as larch's version --
* it's a superset. Both are wrong, really. :-)
*/
while (char_is_alnum (*id)
|| char_is_space (*id)
|| (char_is_punct (*id) && (*id != '<')))
++id;
&c.
}
Are there any plans to support the UTF-8 encoding there and elsewhere?
Looking through the bug list, I found that tla does not deal with
“funky” characters in filenames well
(http://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/index.php?func=detailitem&item_id=5555)
I have not looked through the code, and the bug does not define
“flunky”... Are there plans to support UTF-8 in filenames?
Since arch is such a nice step forward (I am told so, at least: I have
not used it yet), it'd be very nice to see it support at least the UTF-8
encoding. Note this is not the same thing as internationalization of
tla.
I've added an entry for GNU Arch to
http://www.freedesktop.org/Software/BadSoftware
Cheers,
