AIX and Linux difference (character set)
I'm having a problem regarding the encoding of my files in Linux and AIX.
I have a file which can be viewed both in Linux and AIX (via NetApp mount). When I checked the encoding, they have difference.
In Linux, the file is encoded as ISO-8859 text. (checked by using "file" command). However, in AIX, the is encoded as ascii text. The file contains the characters "Æ, Ø, Ò, Ò, etc). I'm not sure if this is a OS difference. My assumption is that the Linux can decode the characters stated above, while in AIX is not.
Can someone please enlighten me?

Please ignore the title. It should be AIX and Linux difference.

Will there be any differences in commands?

Moving from AIX 6.1 to RHEL 6.6, I have noticed a few command differences.
One that has been causing issue is a simple echo command when I have to use it this way -> "echo -e"
On the AIX it outputs to "-e" but since RHEL has "-e" as an option for echo and hence it outputs to blank here.
