Using Unicode Files

So far, we’ve been reading and writing basic text and binary files, but what about processing Unicode files? It turns out to be easy to read and write Unicode text stored in files, because the 3.0 open call accepts an encoding for text files, which does the encoding and decoding for us automatically as data is transferred. This allows us to process Unicode text created with different encodings than the default for the platform, and store in different encodings to convert.
