Top Forums Shell Programming and Scripting Piping fails in locale other than English Post 302670957 by adam.wis on Thursday 12th of July 2012 04:52:35 PM

If this is just an encoding problem, is there a way to fix it? Is it a matter of my script not having the right encoding? I tried using file -i to determine its encoding but all I get is "regular file."

I suppose I can get around piping by storing the output of each command in a temp file, but is this good practice?
