But... Surely if the resulting file is a plain text file, it should
write out plain text? The copyright symbol isn't some bizarre never-
used character after all, and has been used in ascii for a loooong time.
What I mean is, if I write out:
CopyrightText=©
with a TextOutputStream it should appear like that in TextEdit,
shouldn't it? And not like this:
CopyrightText=©
I don't see how that's an encoding issue when I'm *writing* to the
file. Or am I missing something?
All the best,
Mark.
