That makes a lot of sense. Thank you.
>>> 'før'.upper()
'F\xf8R'
>>> 'FØR'
'F\xd8R'
>>> import locale
>>> locale.setlocale(locale.LC_ALL, "")
'no_NO'
>>> 'før'.upper()
'F\xd8R'

'F\xd8R'
I must make a note of the LC_ALL variable in the installation README.
I for one have been running Gentoo Linux for two years without ever
setting the locale, - but now I've finally gotten around to write my
own /etc/env.d/02locale file :-)

The real input will come from a GUI or a browser interface, so the
Windows terminal problem isn't really an issue.
