With UTF-8, there is just one type on encoding, and you don't need to worry about endianess. ============= AFAIK, it still needs B(ytes)O(rder)M(arker) - for proper placing 2+ bytes of characters.
PS: UTF8 is an ideal encoding for file storage & network transfers, surely. But not for string manipulations & drawing, sure too. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Precog is a next-generation analytics platform capable of advanced analytics on semi-structured data.
