I'm trying to persist a string to disk, but every mechanism I've tried
loses bits. The string is holding binary data generated by a third-party
lib.
Searching online has turned up lots of recommendations to use the Buffer
class, however I'm also unable to round-trip the data through Buffer
without losing bits. That is, in general
str !== (new Buffer(str, 'binary')).toString('binary'))
How can I persist a string without losing bits?
Are there docs anywhere on how the String class encodings work, and how to
move data in and out of String without losing bits?
