Subject: Using Internal-encoding=utf8

Hello,

Maybe this has been explained already, but I thought
--internal-encoding=utf-8 option, among other things, will cover the
ability to use --rules with special chars. But for the below exercise it
has the opposite effect.


$ file male-names-replace
male-names-replace: UTF-8 Unicode text

As you could see when using the --internal-encoding=utf8 it did not found
any cracks... Is this as expected?

Thanks
