    I think Java uses UTF-16.

    UTF-32 is a subset of UCS-4, I believe. My impression is that UTF-8 and
    UCS-4 have less to do with UNICODE than UTF-16 and UTF-32.

    I was using:

    Some other links for the curious:

    http://www.cl.cam.ac.uk/~mgk25/unicode.html

    Andrew, thanks for the answer. Personally I see no problem using UTF-8
    internally, but I don't do piecetable work so it's not really my call. I
    wasn't trying to preempt the decision; the new class is just a utility.
