File I O
Programmers need to understand character encoding arguments in TERR.
The functions for creating connections (such as
file and
socketConnection) have an encoding argument that
specifies a character encoding for the connection. Characters are converted to
or from that encoding when writing to or reading from the connection.
You can use the option
--console-encoding and the function
terrUtils::setConsoleEncoding to set the encoding for
console reading or writing to
stdin and
stdout.
