I think JVM is UNICODE-enabled, while the real support only
comes when the underlying OS provies it. Now I think NT does. So
should Linux. But how does the transition from ASCII to UNICODE
happen? How would I know if a file is ASCII or UNICODE? If I
don't know that much, I (my program) might misinterpret data
read from files.

Yeah I hope, so it should be abstracted away. Whether UNICODE or
ASCII, fgetc() should read one character (as defined by the OS).
