No application can interpret a text file without knowledge about the character encoding. That's why every sane file format that includes text, defines the encoding or defines how the encoding is specified. There are some reasonable heuristics that can be used to guess encodings but that is outside the realm of GLib. In your case, I'd guess your file is ISO-8859-1 encoded.
