Nope, it doesn't... see the ascii () documentation: �If a codec has
been set using QTextCodec::codecForCStrings(), it is used to convert
Unicode to 8-bit char. Otherwise, this function does the same as
latin1().�
However you generally shouldn't use ascii() unless either you are
positive that string contains only ascii chars or some over interface
accepts strictly those and you doesn't care about others...
