Description
CL-USER> (drakma:http-request "http://127.0.0.1:8080/"
:basic-authorization '("a" "££££££££££"))
GET / HTTP/1.1
Host: 127.0.0.1:8080
User-Agent: Drakma/2.0.10 (SBCL 2.6.1.roswell; Linux; 6.1.0-40-amd64; http://weitz.de/drakma/)
Authorization: Basic YTqjo6Ojo6Ojo6Oj
Accept: */*
Connection: close
;; ...YTqjo6Ojo6Ojo6Oj in base64 is not valid UTF-8 (it's Latin-1). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basic_access_authentication#Client_side remarks that UTF-8 is allowed to be requested by the server when encoding the authentication header. I see no such option in Drakma though.
