| Hello
I am supposed to read the text contents of a file. Most characters are ASCII ones One of them is stored as $E3. It's ã (aTilde)
I tried : read file theFile and got : ceic„o
In an other occurrence of the same string the aTilde is stored as $C3 $E3 which is the utf8 ID I tried : read file theFile and got : ceic√£o
Which way may I get the correct string : ceicão
I tried with read file theFile as «class Utf8» The result is in fact the hexadecimal contents of the file.
I tried with read file theFile as «class ut16» This time the read process is successful but the result is meaningless : I get only eastern characters
I tried with : read file theFile as data but this time I got 63 65 69 63 C3 A3 6F 20 when the true Hex contents is : 63 65 69 63 C3 E3 6F 20
So, I am puzzled.
Is there an instruction which I forgot which permit to read the correct values ?
