  2. Fork–exec - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fork–exec

    When a process forks, a complete copy of the executing program is made into the new process. This new process is a child of the parent process, and has a new process identifier (PID). The fork() function returns the child's PID to the parent process. The fork() function returns 0 to the child process. This enables the two otherwise identical ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UTF-8

    Although the current version of Python requires an option to open() to read/write UTF-8, [46] plans exist to make UTF-8 I/O the default in Python 3.15. [47] C++23 adopts UTF-8 as the only portable source code file format. [48] Backwards compatibility is a serious impediment to changing code and APIs using UTF-16 to use

    Python 3.15 will "Make UTF-8 mode default", [70] the mode exists in all current Python versions, but currently needs to be opted into. UTF-8 is already used, by default, on Windows (and elsewhere), for most things, but e.g. to open files it's not and enabling also makes code fully cross-platform, i.e. use UTF-8 for everything on all platforms.

  5. Comparison of Unicode encodings - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_Unicode...

    A UTF-8 file that contains only ASCII characters is identical to an ASCII file. Legacy programs can generally handle UTF-8 encoded files, even if they contain non-ASCII characters. For instance, the C printf function can print a UTF-8 string because it only looks for the ASCII '%' character to define a formatting string. All other bytes are ...

    With such notation (constraints on parameterized types using information object sets), generic ASN.1 tools/libraries can automatically encode/decode/resolve references within a document. ^ The primary format is binary, a json encoder is available. [10] ^ The primary format is binary, but a text format is available.

    On the OS/VS1, MVS, and OS/390 operating systems from IBM, a file name was up to 44 characters, consisting of upper case letters, digits, and the period. A file name must start with a letter or number, a period must occur at least once each 8 characters, two consecutive periods could not appear in the name, and must end with a letter or digit. [2]

    It has some ways to avoid transmitting titles in UTF-8 wrongly, for example it allows to incorporate the name of the title within the file itself and to use another command line tool. The local filename could then be written in simple ASCII. Here is an example of a file, named locally 'foo.wiki', using pagefromfile.py (from mw:Manual:Pywikibot):

  9. File URI scheme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File_URI_scheme

    A file URI has the format file://host/path. where host is the fully qualified domain name of the system on which the path is accessible, and path is a hierarchical directory path of the form directory/directory/.../name. If host is omitted, it is taken to be "localhost", the machine from which the URL is being interpreted.
