Where is the problem? ISOLatin1 can support this chars òòòààà!!
ASCIIEncoding supports it, but why NSFileHandle can't write them!?
ASCII doesn't support accented characters at
all. It only supports characters from 0 - 127.
I'm not sure whether ISO Latin supports all of
these characters. It should definitely support
everything you can come across in French and
other of the more common European languages,
though.
IMHO, you should just break down, use Unicode,
and not use a fixed size for your entries. No
matter what encoding you use, your program will
not be able to display many characters that the
user could enter.
Why do you need to store your data as
fixed-length blocks anyway? What high-level goal
are you trying to achieve?
