[Mono-dev] some attention please on a unicode bug

[Anton Andreev]

Hi,

It worked.
Always use the correct encoding utf-8/utf-16 (depending on the files) 
with fileencoding directive and not "unicode". That is the lesson I ve 
learned 10x to /Robert Jordan <mailto:robertj at gmx.net>.

I must admit that the Microsoft .NET framework throws no exception, but 
Mono does.

Cheers,
Anton
