I need to read and process a tab-delimited text file that is in UTF8 format containing unicode. The final goal is to get it into an array with the first tabbed item as the keys, preserving all unicode. There are some HTML format tags in it as well.

If I read the file as binfile, carriage returns are all lost.

Reading it as "file:" and trying to simply convert the entire text block has failed (and crashed) more ways than I can record here.

How do I get hundreds of lines of unicode text into an array?
