Hello Tim, TR> The base system has a UTF-8 version of every supported locale in 5.2-CURRENT, TR> but for previous releases (inc. 5.1), you'll have to install misc/utf8locale TR> from the ports collection. TR> Support for UTF-8 (and other multi-byte encodings) has been greatly improved TR> since 5.1 and 5.2, so you'd do well to upgrade to 5.3 when it's released. Thank you for the info! I installed this port. Have you any info about release dates of 5.3 version? Do you know is there some upgrade guide from older encodings to utf-8? There's no problems for people worked in ASCII due to backward compatibility, but on my system there's files in 8-bit encodings like KOI8-R and windows-1251. What can you recommend me?
