Of course; that part didn't change.  I was talking about C11's new UTF-8 string 
literals, e.g., u8"Emacsの主要操作(早見表)".  There is no similar notation for 
Shift-JIS, etc.  Of course implementations can support legacy encodings, and 
some legacy C programs are written that way, but the only portable way to go in 
the future is Unicode.
