Hi,
I would like to transparently convert from ANSI to UTF-8 when
dealing with text files. For example here in Slovakia,
virtually every text file is in Windows-1250. If someone opens
a text file, he or she expects that it will work properly. So I
suppose, that it is not feasible to tell someone "if you want
to use my program, please convert every text to UTF-8".
A while back I wrote a little code that effectively does that,
mind you it's probably not the right specific encoding, however
you should be able to find the code points and replace them. I
think this was for iso-8859-1.
