Thanks everyone for your responses. Using:
put uniDecode(the unicodeText of fld 1, "UTF8") into URL
"binfile:config.xml"
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.
By the way, for OS X users who need to test with international
languages it is really easy. Go to System Prefs >> International >>
Input Menu and select the languages you want to type in. You will see
a little flag appear in your menu whenever you enter a text field. You
can then select different flags and your keyboard entry changes to that
language. So within Rev you can enter ascii charactes, Japanese
characters, etc. for testing. Very handy.
Thanks,
