Re: Writing to file as UTF8 with BOM ?

UTF-8 is also reasonably compact for Latin-based scripts.  It starts

losing the size battle to UTF-16 for the scripts of the Subcontinent

and the far East, which is why there are things like SCSU

(http://www.unicode.org/reports/tr6/) that let you shift the position

of the subset of characters that's representable with single-byte

values.



ok, i see then that compression is mostly for transmission purpose.
i suppose also for sufficiently high volume of dats because their is a cost compress/uncompress.
