------------------------------------------------
> Nicholas - we are are using

> which does the whole 'decoding' operation, ditto for encoding.

BTW, TestFileAppend2 also works consistently in my Windows and Linux machines.
> Use a thread-local rather than static ENCODER/DECODER variables in Text for
