I know exactly no encodings which are not able to represent ASCII characters and am pretty sure you cannot have one as a system locale even if such encoding exists. The way user enters characters is out of the scope of zsh responsibilities. It has a number of ways to input characters not present in particular keyboard layout, but usually users just have more then one layout and one of the layouts they use is some English variant. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: APG v1.1.1 iQJNBAEBCgA3BQJUk7aYMBwfMDI7PjIgHTg6PjswOSAQOzU6QTA9NEA+MjhHIDxr cC1wYXZAeWFuZGV4LnJ1PgAKCRBu+P2/AXZZIgdUEADDFMCJE7GqsJgjYN6lF307 YYN73HGCcZgIN1hS89SwI8q1xj/CsclstIwV1xC5E1lsiFV8p56t3Mn1g1cMcozp 8BHCtNDFkDfzWu+PZUOGdPArCpbh5M0fHzR0zWRPjO7E02k09omfmUihV+Y4RNcF 2p6SAIImhNVhVsogSezckyD5u8K4j/oQX+9WM0pZdprPMQIuLxvpPPytmtCw7RHE uAoXW2ksbX6a4XUgDxyMde9QQSGYdAgEFCIbCHiLx/yNO17uLPbx+8vk9PjsIOCq Ur9AqCtbKYO+GZXC/PfR9mOHxNS3hMO5U612gflpLL7SLtasmQBq0FEEWF+U85zS wqkbH9Fsbg4U8MzLI8/27njpndtHPUMMd3Z9BLq3+R3FJXgeusTJ1fD9xEPhijeC lM575Vxwa6FsLOCYXCVKAjmHk5IJ3OCrjgXLyomIaocXVq8lauZ1J3NVXwyHZ0D/ j35ez2yJPkf2hxu4u0tz6hglLYyZok7aoTTW65f/3JjHNcT+qL9Ae+i4vicgNkjX ctQbBOJx5h/rdhz0PTT9//dya2ye+QPyZFi5em1lUyLaRZhv80P/HVJY4FyZ4wXb zcipriZAj0RTW7pE32slM/jjeYonoTFqUBmtQ0inshgAO8ozU+XgtKv+j9s5Kkcf fmreQXkv0o0ayMb/dp4jQQ== =xpO1 -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
