Re: Reg. Non-English string literal in Java code

I've put literal Japanese characters into strings sent to beanshell and it
worked fine.  So I know it can be done without changes to bsh internals.

Perhaps its using the default encoding ... I always start my java programs
(in this case tomcat) with

export LANG=en_US.UTF-8
java ... -Dfile.encoding=UTF-8  

This sets the default character set to UTF-8 ...

It's Beanshell. The interpreter should be assuming UTF8 and reading the
cyrillic chars directly just as XML parsers do by default. Writing non-ASCII
chars with Unicode escapes is laborious. It drives me nuts with Japanese
(and yes, I know there is tool support but this should be default for all
interpreters and compilers these days.) Hopefully we can find some time to
fix this.
