Hello,
Cint supports Japanese multi-byte characters. For doing so,
other 8bit characters are sacrificed. I'll introduce a feature
to support 8bit character comments (by disabling multi-byte character
support) in cint5.14.73. It will be achieved by -m option
to cint or '.lang EUR' command.
Thank you
Masaharu Goto
