Sigh, except for a stupid Unicode version of an apostrophe (’ vs ') this file was ASCII. And I made it so for a reason. We don't currently have a way to iconv fortune(6)'s output to the users LC_CTYPE. ASCII is the common denominator so that's what we have to choose to be bug free. My plan was to teach fortune to use bsdiconv once that is ready and in the tree to convert from Unicode to the users' locale. But until that is ready, we have to stick to ASCII. This is not a backout request, merely an explanation for why things were the way they were. I wish we'd mandated UTF-8 as the one true encoding a looong time ago. If Plan9 could do it, why not us?
