Saving:
on mouseUp
ask file "Save to file.."
if it is empty then exit to top
put textEncode(fld "nonlatin","utf8") into url ("file:" & it)
put the result
end mouseUp
Reading in:
on mouseUp
answer file "Open file.."
if it is empty then exit to top
put url ("file:" & it) into tText
put textDecode(tText,"utf8") into fld "nonlatin"
put the result
end mouseUp
You have to know the format of the file you're reading in, but it works well.
