@cindex iri support
@cindex idn support
@item --iri
Turn on internationalized URI (IRI) support. Use @samp{--iri=no} to
turn it off. IRI support is activated by default.
You can set the default state of IRI support using @code{iri} command in
@file{.wgetrc}. That setting may be overridden from the command line.
@cindex local encoding
@cindex locale
@item --locale=@var{encoding}
Force Wget to use @var{encoding} as the default system encoding. That affects
how Wget converts URLs specified as arguments from locale to @sc{utf-8} for
IRI support.
Wget use the function @code{nl_langinfo()} and then the @code{CHARSET}
environment variable to get the locale. If it fails, @sc{ascii} is used.
You can set the default locale using the @code{locale} command in
@file{.wgetrc}. That setting may be overridden from the command line.

``dot'' progress will be favored over ``bar''. To force the bar output,
use @samp{--progress=bar:force}.
@cindex remote encoding
@item --remote-encoding=@var{encoding}
Force Wget to use encoding as the default remote server encoding. That
affects how Wget converts URIs found in files from remote encoding to
@sc{utf-8} during a recursive fetch. This options is only useful for
IRI support, for the interpretation of non-@sc{ascii} characters.
For HTTP, remote encoding can be found in HTTP @code{Content-Type}
header and in HTML @code{Content-Type http-equiv} meta tag.
You can set the default encoding using the @code{remoteencoding}
command in @file{.wgetrc}. That setting may be overridden from the
command line.

@itemx --timestamping
