Re: how to set language for non-unicode text

[Dov Grobgeld <dov grobgeld gmail com>]

No, don't use gtk-i18n-list and don't cross post. gtk-app-devel-list is just
fine.

Gtk works only with unicode in utf8 encoding internally, so if you want a
different format on the disk you will have to convert your text on input and
output.
