Thank you for the feedback on the website :)

LuaRT does not use the concept of C locale.
All the necessary configuration is done during the 'sys' module 
initialization for writing UTF8 characters to the console (with some 
limits for some region, see discussion on the console limitation on 
Windows for some language).

String.upper and string.lower uses the Windows API which is quite good 
for some accentued characters.
Char intervals are treated the same. An accentued character (for example 
"à") is not in the interval [A-Z] (which includes letters, but not 
accentued letters).
