Thank you, Emile.
That explain the fact that an encoding is not specified in a text =20
file (obvious, but was somehow a mystery).=
In fact, this is a shame.
They made a fantastic job with encodings and failed miserably with
the text files...
One have to know what kind of encoding is used for the text in the
file to been able to read it correctly !

Hi,
This is not 100% (only 69.4%) true.
1 - As Joe written in the first answer UTF-8 and UTF-16 files could
have/use an BOM.
2 - Other text files like html, xml and like that SHOULD HAVE an
charset declaration.
3 - And then we have some others plain text files, encoded like
MacRoman, MacCyrillic or some others. And here we get some problems.
Just an note.
