Re: Writing a buffer with UTF-8 content.

[Yaa101 <yaa101 xs4all nl>]

The more I try the less I understand.

When I convert the buffer explicitly from utf-8 to utf-8 the results
stay the same.

When I log the buffer to stdout, all the encoding stays well and all
the locales are seen in their own fonts (I got most fonts of the world
installed), when written to file all faults up.

AAAAAAAAAAAAAARRRRRRRRRRRRRRRGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
