One more thing regarding Mono.Posix:

Windows File APIs can either accept ANSI or OEM depending on AreFileApisANSI
(http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa363781.aspx) so Encoding.Default may
not always work.

OEM code page is another system wide setting (bound to ANSI code page I think
but can be modified in registry) that is the legacy DOS code page (like 437).
Console windows usually use OEM encoding but Console API provides GetConsoleCP
and GetConsoleOutputCP (with Set functions as well) so they may very well use
any other code page. Note that console code page is handled correctly by Mono.
