samba - Jul 2013 - UTF-8 output for wmic

Hi,

I have a question on wmic, the linux wmi client, which uses samba. Is this
mailing list the right place to ask? or there is a better forum or mailing list
to ask?

Basically, I want to ask if wmic supports UTF-8 for its output or not. If yes,
how to turn it on? By default, it doesn't return UTF-8 for extended ascii
characters. I tried to put "unix charset?=?UTF8" in a config file and
use -s option to give it to wmic, but that didn't work either.?

Thanks in advance!

Felix

there is no WMIC with UTF-8 support. I also believe WMIC doesn't use
samba. Is there even a GPL-Version?
