Since UTF-8 includes the entire ASCII range (0x0 to 0x7F) exactly, then there 
really isn't a good reason to not use UTF-8.  You could use "us-ascii", but 
that is not portable.

As long as your files contain nothing but ASCII characters, then, even if they 
are declared as being UTF-8, they will still be ASCII files.
