Can we use +utf-8+ instead of +latin-1+ in handler ? It is a newbie question but the following code doesnot work using +latin-1+:
(let ((out (flexi-streams:make-flexi-stream (tbnl:send-headers) :external-format tbnl::+utf-8+))) ; tbnl::+;latin-1+ doesnot work (copy-stream in out 'character))
where, "in" holds utf-8 data.
In hunchentoot-1.2.2, it says that +latin-1+ is "A FLEXI-STREAMS external format used for `faithful' input and output of binary data.", which i cannot understand very well.
Sincerely!
