Hi, all. I'm stymied in my efforts to save a field of Unicode text to a text file. I'm working with Windows (7) and the latest version of Livecode.
The field has Unicode text in it which which I can readily copy and paste into Word and Wordpad and preserve all of the Unicode characters. But if I try to save it to a binfile I simply cannot get the correct text. If I code put the unicodeText of fld "x" into url theFile it seems to not recognize that the fld is already Unicode text, and outputs each character with a space after it as if it has tried to create Unicode text from simple text. So the file is garbage. But if I code put fld "x" into url theFile I also don't get the Unicode characters rendering correctly in a textfile. What alternative is there to output this Unicode text to a Unicode text file?
