# Default character set. Values found inside files, ie content tag in html

# The default used to be set to iso8859-1, but we now take it from the nls
# environment (LC_ALL/LC_CTYPE/LANG). The ultimate hardwired default is
# still 8859-1. If for some reason you want a general default which doesnt

# A list of characters, encoded in UTF-8, which should be handled specially
# when converting text to unaccented lowercase. For example, in Swedish,
# the letter a with diaeresis has full alphabet citizenship and should not
# be turned into an a.
# Each element in the space-separated list has the special character as
# first element and the translation following. The handling of both the
# lowercase and upper-case versions of a character should be specified, as
# appartenance to the list will turn-off both standard accent and case
# processing. Examples:
# Swedish:
# unac_except_trans = ää Ää öö Öö üü Üü ßss œoe Œoe æae Æae fifi flfl åå Åå
# German:
# unac_except_trans = ää Ää öö Öö üü Üü ßss œoe Œoe æae Æae fifi flfl
# In French, you probably want to decompose oe and ae and nobody would type
# a German ß
# unac_except_trans = ßss œoe Œoe æae Æae fifi flfl
# Reasonable default for all until someone protests. These decompositions
# are not performed by unac, but I cant imagine someone typing the composed
# forms in a search.
