Re: [Bug-apl] How do I convert a byte sequence to Unicode?

[Elias Mårtenson]

What do you think of the idea of supporting arbitrary encodings using dyadic ⎕UCS? I'd be happy to implement it. Although, perhaps you don't want to add a dependency on iconv?

Hi,

I have added 18 ⎕CR and 19 ⎕CR to convert from Unicode strings
(like 'Hello ⍴ ∇' in APL) to byte vectors (character vectors with values 0-255) in UTF8 encoding
and back. See SVN 233.

I can use lib_file_io to read a sequence of byte values from a file
containing Unicode text.

How do I convert that sequence back to a Unicode string in GNU APL?
