Another example from the document:

    For the second case, the default handling depends on the encoding being
used.

    % encoding convertto ascii \uDC00
    ?
    % encoding convertto utf-8 \uDC00
    unexpected character at index 0: 'U+00DC00'

    Notice how the treatment of surrogates differs between the two
encodings.

If I try this:

    $ tclsh9.0

    % encoding convertto ascii \uDC00

    unexpected character at index 0: 'U+00DC00'

    % encoding convertto utf-8 \uDC00

    unexpected character at index 0: 'U+00DC00'


Again, which version of Tcl 9.0 are you testing?


Hope this helps,
