[Qgis-user] Shapefile with file .cpg(codepage)

[Neumann, Andreas]

Hi, 

I wonder why this is not the default? If a .cpg file is present, one can
assume that the information is correct. Probably in some edge cases it
may be false, but in the majority I assume the .cpg files to contain
correct information.
