okey dokey, sorry -- i've sussed it.

specify the right encoding for the original string. use NSData's initWithContentsOfFile: which allows you to specify the encoding of the text file which i found out using BBEdit.

string = [[NSString alloc] initWithData:[NSData dataWithContentsOfFile:@"/path/file"] encoding:NSWindowsCP1251StringEncoding];

this has got to be a seriously faq so if anyone could point me straight to an already written answer it'd be great -- i couldn't find one.

NSLog(@"%u %x %C, [string characterAtIndex: indx], [string characterAtIndex: indx], [string characterAtIndex: indx]);

the character i'm looking at for example is ‘ that is the single left quote. i've got that into my string from a text file by using initWithContentsOfFile: for NSString. the above print statement results in:

235 eb \\353

it doesn't seem to tally with any unicode tables that i can see. single left quote is 8216 and 0x2018. i know the console can't display unicode chars but what is \\353 ? it doesn't seem to correspond to anything.

i want to test for the existence of various quote marks. how can i do that?

thanks, ben.
