That did it! The following code create a file that was read as a UTF8 file by BBEdit:
on mouseUp
set useUnicode to true
put "/Users/trevordevore/Desktop/config.xml" into tPath
open file tPath for binary write
write uniDecode (bom() & the unicodeText of field 1, "UTF8") to file tPath
close file tPath
end mouseUp
function bom set the useUnicode to true return numToChar(abs(baseConvert("FEFF",16,10))) end bom
Thanks!

I get a file that Flash MX reads without a problem. BBEdit still doesn't recognize it but I will mess around with adding the BOM to the file and see if that helps. Now I just need to find a way to get file paths in unicode and I will have a unicode friendly application.
Try putting the BOM before the unicode and then convert to UTF-8.
(BTW, as you probably noticed, I got the bytes swapped in my earlier suggestion for creating the BOM. The principle still might work.
function bom set the useUnicode to true return numToChar(abs(baseConvert("FEFF",16,10))) end if
Or something like that.
Or simply use the three byte UTF-8 version.)
