try this:
put the unicodeText of fld "text" into tText put uniDecode (tText,"utf8") into url "file:mysavedtext.txt"
it works for me -- at least with cyrillic. opens correctly in bbedit if you tell bbedit to open it as utf8, but not if you try to open it with auto-detect.
Thanks a lot, this did the trick - at least with Cyrillic, Greek and Turkish. I hope that RunRev will add this to the "recipe" collection in their documentation. CE fonts, however, still are interpreted as latin-1.
I have now found out how to have RR handle CE fonts (on the Mac, OS X): the trick is not to use Monaco CE or any of the other CE fonts, but to use Lucida Grande (or any other Unicode font, presumably) and enter CE characters from the Unicode character palette. This way, Toma Tasovac' code above worked fine.
This is of course not an alternative when entering large amounts of text, but it is easy to make a Unicode character layout for CE characters with the keyboard generator at <http://wordherd.com/keyboards/>.
So that settles it - I have put in an order for RR Studio and will migrate my project from HyperCard. It would still be nice to have RR handle CE entered with the built-in CE keyboard layouts, similar to the way Cyrillic is converted to Unicode when entered from a keyboard layout belonging to the Cyrillic script.
