Thanks.
TStringlist is too slow and the conversion should not be part of
codetools. The widgetsets have the best access to the system libs, so
they have the best encoding converters. I can do that part.
The difficult part is to find out the encoding of a text file.
Your proposal of the //&encoding comment has the advantage of comments.
Because this is a lazarus feature I suggest to use IDE directives
style comments: {%encoding xxx}.
What about all the existing pascal files (e.g. coming from
delphi)?
