There are several steps, but processing is char-by-char. You have to know how to read a char. With UTF-16, this is easy. UTF-8 is harder to read. Once you have a char, you need a method to map it to the new character set. Handling errors is another story. Also, if you are reading a channel, you can fconfigure as binary. If you don't do this, then Tcl will probably convert it to UTF-8. Use your char reader on a binary channel unless Tcl can do the conversion all by itself. Don't expect too much, I have yet to find a browser which reads UTF-8 100% correct. see: http://rmadilo.com/files/utf-8/UTF-8-test.txt tom jackson -- AOLserver - http://www.aolserver.com/ To Remove yourself from this list, simply send an email to <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> with the body of "SIGNOFF AOLSERVER" in the email message.
