Strings of length 1 are denoted as a Maxima character.

Position indices in strings are 1-indexed like in Maxima lists. This results to 
the following consistency.

               charlist(str)[i] = charat(str, i), i >= 1.

(declare-top (special *parse-utf-8-input*))
#|
In an application which encodes characters in UTF-8 and the external format of 
the Lisp reader is set to e.g. cp1252 (or has no format definition like in GCL)
a string of length 1 which contains a non-us-ascii character like an umlaut 
is read as a sequence of two or more octets, e.g. auml -> #(195 164), and 
misinterpreted as a sequence of two or more characters.

When the flag *parse-utf-8-input* is set to true the string processing 
functions in stringproc.lisp and sregex.lisp decode and restructure octet 
sequences in a way that octet groups like '(195 164) are coded back into the 
original string of length 1.

In addition to this position indices in strings are fixed accordingly.

Functions like $alphacharp which need a Lisp character representation of a 
Maxima character do not work for non-us-ascii characters, e.g. auml is not 
recognized as alphabetic.

Linux/Unix:

          terminal, GUI                Lisp reader            string_to_octets
string_0 ----encode----> UTF-8-octets ----decode----> string_1 ----encode----> octets

wMaxima, Xmaxima and commonly used terminals read characters in UTF-8 
which means the characters are encoded as UTF-8-octets.

From the Lisp's point of view this is the external format of the input.
Any Lisp reader should read and decode this input in UTF-8 too.
Then all characters are read as they are entered in a GUI or terminal. 
string_0 is equal to string_1. This is necessary for all stringproc functions 
like e.g. cryptools.lisp/string_to_octets to work properly.

UTF-8 is the default external format for SBCL, CLISP, ECL, CCL and CMUCL(GUI).

GCL has no format definition and Maxima itself parses the UTF-8 octets.

By default CMUCL uses ISO8859-1 in a terminal. The format is changed to UTF-8 
when loading stringproc.lisp. 

So in GNU/Linux adjust_external_format prints a message and does nothing.

Observations based on Maxima 5.37post from git (Feb 2016).

Windows:

Like in Linux the external format of the Lisp reader should meet the format 
used by the terminal resp. by the GUI. 

If the terminal uses cp850 it should be set to cp1252 (or ISO-8859-1).
The font should be set to true type. Both changes enable the full range of 
cp1252 (resp. ISO-8859-1) and are assumed in the following.

CCL(terminal) reads UTF-8 and the input from terminal is (assumed to be) ISO-8859-1. 
  The UTF-8 reader misinterprets codepoints > 127. Adjustment needed. 
  Switch to ISO-8859-1 via Lisp option in 'maxima.bat'. 
  (CCL does not support cp1252. Both encodiings should be iso8859-1.)

CCL(wxMaxima) reads UTF-8 and the input from wxMaxima is UTF-8. Do nothing.

CLISP(terminal) reads cp1252 and the input is (assumed to be) cp1252. Do nothing.

CLISP(wxMaxima) reads cp1252 and the input is UTF-8. 
  cp1252 is changed to to UTF-8 when loading stringproc.lisp. Nothing left to do.

GCL has no format definition. Input from terminal and wxMaxima is (assumed to be) cp1252. Do nothing.

SBCL(terminal) reads UCS-2LE and the input is UCS-2LE. Do nothing.

SBCL(wxMaxima) reads cp1252 but the input is UTF-8. Adjustment needed. 
  Switch to UTF-8 via Lisp command in init file.
  Update (Maxima 5.40.0): SBCL(wxMaxima) reads UTF-8 and the input is UTF-8. Do nothing.

Observations based on Maxima 5.36.1(ccl), 5.37.2/5.40.0(clisp), 5.37.3(gcl), 
5.37.2/5.40.0(sbcl) in Windows 7.
