ccl ignores the environment variables for the encoding :-(


A file such as:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
(defun hello-world ()
  (format t "おはよう world!"))
------------------------------------------------------------------------
is meaningless.  We don't know what encoding it's written in.


If you use emacs:
------------------------------------------------------------------------
;; -*- mode:lisp; coding:utf-8 -*-
(defun hello-world ()
  (format t "おはよう world!"))
------------------------------------------------------------------------

$ ccl -norc 
Welcome to Clozure Common Lisp Version 1.7-dev-r14788M-trunk
(LinuxX8664)!
? (setf ccl:*default-file-character-encoding* :utf-8)
:UTF-8
? (load "hw.lisp")
#P"/tmp/hw.lisp"
? (hello-world)
おはよう world!
NIL
? 


Notice that the -K option only sets the terminal encoding, for the
*terminal-io* stream, not for files:

   -K, --terminal-encoding : specify character encoding to use for *TERMINAL-IO*



You may use the following in ~/ccl-init.lisp:


(defun locale-terminal-encoding ()
  "Returns the terminal encoding specified by the locale(7)."
  #+(and ccl windows)
  :iso-8859-1
  ;; ccl doesn't support :windows-1252, otherwise we'd use:
  ;; (intern (format nil "WINDOWS-~A" (#_GetACP)) "KEYWORD")
  #-(and ccl windows)
  (dolist (var '("LC_ALL" "LC_CTYPE" "LANG")
               :iso-8859-1) ; some random default…
    (let* ((val (getenv var))
           (dot (position #\. val))
           (at  (position #\@ val :start (or dot (length val)))))
      (when (and dot (< dot (1- (length val))))
        (return (intern (let ((name (string-upcase (subseq val (1+ dot)
                                                           (or at (length val))))))
                          (if (and (prefixp "ISO" name) (not (prefixp "ISO-" name)))
                              (concatenate 'string "ISO-" (subseq name 3))
                              name))
                        "KEYWORD"))))))


(defun set-terminal-encoding (encoding)
  ;; Swank sets the encoding on its streams correctly. 
  #-(and ccl (not swank)) (declare (ignore encoding))
  #+(and ccl (not swank))
  (mapc (lambda (stream)
          (setf (ccl::stream-external-format stream)
                (ccl:make-external-format :domain nil
                                          :character-encoding encoding

        (list (two-way-stream-input-stream  *terminal-io*)
              (two-way-stream-output-stream *terminal-io*)))
  (values))


(let ((encoding  (locale-terminal-encoding)))
    (set-terminal-encoding encoding)
    (setf ccl:*default-file-character-encoding*   encoding
          ccl:*default-socket-character-encoding* encoding
