Who needs UTF-8? And how often, say, in a decade or the life period of
the computer?
Using MacRoman you save some disk space – outside the U.S.A. and the
UK. So Dick (Koch) should find a good explanation, because for natives
like him it makes no difference, brings no savings ...
ISO Latin-9 or ISO 8859-15, the encoding with €, a modern and very
valuable currency, could be a better choice. And it's an ISO standard,
nothing proprietary.
