Bug 1791: tr: clarify encdings of non-characters bytes and proper encodings of the NUL byte and Rejected
https://austingroupbugs.net/bug_view_page.php?bug_id=1791

Rejected, closed.
NUL is not a special case; NUL is a character in every locale. The
standard says that the strings specified by string1 and string2
contain characters. A single character in those strings may be
represented by one or more adjacent octal sequences that represent
individual bytes of a multi-byte character. The notes in the
APPLICATION USAGE and in the RATIONALE specify that <tt>tr -d
'\000'</tt> must remove NUL characters from the input stream. This
would also work with <tt>tr -d '\0</tt>' and <tt>tr -d '\00'</tt>.
But if one wanted to remove NUL characters and the character '1',
one would have to use <tt>tr -d '\0001'</tt> (or put the '1' before
the octal escape sequence for the NUL character, e.g. <tt>tr -d
'1\0'</tt>); not <tt>tr -d '\01'</tt> or <tt>tr -d '\001'</tt>.
Therefore, this bug is rejected.
