Hi AppleScripters,
I just started toying around with AppleScript. I thought it would be fun
to try to syndicate my iTunes Recently Played list. But I'm having major
difficulty with the text encoding.
I've managed to get AppleScript to write an RSS file of the songs I've been
listening to. I can't get that file to validate, however, because I can
only encode the file in Mac OS Roman or full UTF 16.
Is there a way to recode either one of these encodings to utf-8 or
iso-latin-1? I looked at the GNU recode project but it won't build on Mac
OS X. I also found the TEC scripting addition but doesn't that require
classic mode?
Any help or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
