I'm trying to debug a "corrupted" string. The string was archived

If your string actually contains what you typed above (i.e. a slash,
lower-case 'u', etc.) then I believe that string has been encoded
with kCFStringEncodingNonLossyASCII. Such an encoding uses 7-bit
ASCII characters to represent all Unicode code-points.
To work with the CF string encodings, you can use
CFStringConvertEncodingToNSStringEncoding to map them to an
appropriate NSStringEncoding.
I realize that it's probably an encoding problem, but I'm not
really sure what the best way to turn those codes into normal text is.
Can someone give me a hint of how to turn an NSString with the
above content into an NSString with readable text content?
As to if it will be readable, I agree with John Stiles in that it
appears to be garbage.
