  That's right.  I think, however, that it's more portable to use
utf-8, which covers all of Unicode, than to use windows-charset-1251,
which covers only Ascii and Cyrillic (Slavic).  Fortunately, switching
the charset in this way only requires changing two places: (1) the
content-type statement, which informs the client (browser) which
charset to use; and (2) the with-http-body external-format, which
tells Lisp how to send characters to the client.

 (publish :path "/hello"
	  :content-type "text/html; charset=utf-8"
	  :function #'(lambda (req ent)
			(with-http-response (req ent)
			  (with-http-body (req ent
					       :external-format
					       (crlf-base-ef :utf-8))
			    (html "Hello [...]")))))
