Given a file, how can I determine the NSStringEncoding of the file, without reading the entire file into memory?
Some files may have a text encoding attribute set, which you can read using getxattr and "com.apple.textEncoding". Probably you won't have the luxury of just using that API, but since it hadn't been mentioned yet I wanted to bring it up.
The most important thing is that you let your users override whatever heuristic you choose as a default.
