Readline - UTF-8 or Unicode or both?

BlitzMax Forums/BlitzMax Programming/Readline - UTF-8 or Unicode or both?

Hi,

I've been playing around with this tonight and having trouble. Have the above changed been implemented.

In my code I'm trying to compare a sting in my source with a string read from a file.

When the files is saved as standard 8 bit text I have no problem, however when the file is saved as Unicode 16 my seach string is not found.

Whats more, when I write to this unicode 16 file, latin characters from the source file are saved as some kind of asian glif?

Anybody know what I'm doing wrong?
