Stream...

[mcbrides]

Can someone sort out a problem I'm having writing to files...

Using this code...

      out = PrintStream(FileOutputStream(File(filename)))

... to send strings to file. It works, but sometimes characters are flubbed.
Like sending a chr(248) gets translated to chr(63)... which simply destroys
pointers in databases...

Anyone?

The PrintStream class translates Unicode to the local codepage before printing
it.  You probably want to treat your file as 8-bit bytes rather than 16-bit
chars.
