[TYPO3-dev] Bug 1039 - Why T3 has that few success in asia!!!

[Elmar Hinz]

Hi Ernesto,

I played around a litle. Obviously this line

> $TYPO3_CONF_VARS['SYS']['setDBinit'] = 'SET NAMES utf8;';

is elementary to get a clean utf-8 database, so that you can handle the
data also with tools like phpmyadmin.

Unfortunatly it's not a setting, people stumble directly upon. How could
this be improved? 

Would it make sense to set this automatically when "force utf-8" is set? 
Should there be a an entry in the help text of the install tool?

Regards

Elmar
