May I suggest an entry about DefineEncoding. I liked what you said
earlier about laying off DefineEncoding. I had suspected as much, but
wasn't sure. You might even consider saying in the FAQ exactly what
DefineEncoding does (that is creates a new string that is a copy of the
old string with the encoding field set to the new encoding) just to
drive home the point that it DefineEncoding doesn't convert a string to
a new encoding, which is what I some people believe.

As was recently suggested, I've decided to start a FAQ on text
encoding in REALbasic 5. I'm going to let this be driven by actual
questions. Here's what I have so far, based only on posts I saw
today. If you have more questions, please feel free to ask and I'll
add the answers to the FAQ.
