UCS-4? KOI8? my locale is KOI8, and i HATE D for assuming that everyone
one the planet using UTF-8 and happy with it. from my POV, almost all
string decoding is broken. string i got from filesystem? good god, lest
it not contain anything out of ASCII range! string i got from text
file? the same. string i must write to text file or stdout? oh, 'cmon,
what do you mean telling me "п©я─п╦п╡п╣я┌"?! i can't read that!
