CP - Default Code Page Name

Note:
The system code page is detected via ICU (International Components for Unicode). On the platforms supported by Natural for Linux and Cloud, you should always define the CP parameter, because the ICU default could be defined differently for different Linux platforms and this definition can as well change for a specific platform with newer ICU versions. Moreover, the system code page on Linux is often UTF-8. UFT-8 is basically not a code page, but a Unicode encoding; it is a multi-byte encoding where the length of one character can be 1 through 4 bytes. It is unlikely that the A format encoding is UTF-8 because Natural statements such as REDEFINE will not work on an encoding with a variable character length. For this reason, an error will be displayed if the system code page is UTF-8 and the CP parameter has to be set to a valid code page in this case.
