Kernel doesn't know about $LANG at all. utf8 is just in a userland thing, and normal UNIX FSes doesn't care about encoding *at all*, just save as-is. It is why you feel FSes working by utf8. Well, anyway, if you want to add encoding conversion to msdos, we need the patch. -- OGAWA Hirofumi <hirofumi@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-fsdevel" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
