They've posted a good explanation of how to use unicode text here on the Rev site:

Thanks Martin, but I'm not sure how to use this info.

I wonder if anyone here knows how to save a text file in Unicode or some character encoding that preserves international character sets?

Thanks

Perhaps this info is a clue?

Windows or Unix character position 237 = iacute

Mac character position 237 = Igrave

In Czechoslovakia, the "Application Data" folder on Windows XP is called "Data aplikací". So, when we get specialfolderpath("26"), the path looks
something like this:

C:/Documents and Settings/Username/Data aplikací/OurFolder/

In Rev, all works fine.

But when we create a regular text batch file:

 put tBatchCommands into URL ("binfile:" & theBatchFileLoc())

the Czech character is transformed into this:

  C:/Documents and Settings/Username/Data aplikacÌ/OurFolder/

and when running the batch file, the system cannot find the path.

Obviously we are messing up the character encoding when we write the
text file and the (one character, in our case) is changed.

Has anyone run into this or know how to preserve character encoding in
our text file?_______________________________________________
