6.11.6  Charset
This allows you to specify the assumed character set of all text strings.
If you specify ascii only standard ASCII character codes in the range from
0 to 127 are valid. You can easily find a table of ASCII characters on the
internet. The option utf8 is a special Unicode text encoding and it allows
you to specify characters of nearly all languages in use today. We suggest
you use a text editor with the capability to export text to UTF8 to generate
input files. You can find more information, including tables with codes of
valid characters at http://www.unicode.org/ The last possible option is to
use a system specific character set. For details about the sys character set
option refer to the platform specific documentation.
