No documentation for setLocaleEncoding
Summary
setLocaleEncoding
lacks any documentation: https://hackage.haskell.org/package/base-4.16.0.0/docs/GHC-IO-Encoding.html#v:setLocaleEncoding
I used to assume that invoking setLocaleEncoding utf8
is sufficient to print UTF-8 to stdout, but seems it is not the case on Windows. E. g., code-page
resorts to calling setConsoleCP
.
Proposed improvements or changes
It would be great to explain the effect of setLocaleEncoding
in documentation and mention best practices with regards to Windows support.
