default_charset Character Set in UIL

With the default_charset string literal, any characters can be set as a valid string literal. For example, if the LANG environment variable is el_GR, the string literal with default_charset can contain any Greek character. If the LANG environment variable is ja_JP, the default_charset string literal can contain any Japanese character encoded in Japanese EUC.

If no character set is set to a string literal, the character set of the string literal is set as cur_charset. And, in the system environment, the cur_charset value is always set as default_charset.

Example: uil_sample

Figure 4-4 shows a UIL sample program on English and Japanese environments.
