Don't edit text files for UNIX in notepad. If you'd been editing them in UNIX you'd have seen those characters; they're what Notepad inserts at the beginning of Unicode text files to warn itself that they're unicode(UTF8 in this case), and that's what's messing up your comparison.

I extract those from a file i download from a website, when downloaded the file is ISO-8859-1 i use:

Code:

vim +"set bomb | set fileencoding=utf-8 | wq" $(find . -type f -name info.txt)

to change to UTF8

px_set_inputencoding

PX_SET_INPUTENCODING(3) 				     Library Functions Manual					   PX_SET_INPUTENCODING(3)

NAME

       PX_set_inputencoding -- Set encoding for output

SYNOPSIS

       #include <paradox.h>

       int PX_set_inputencoding(pxdoc_t *pxdoc, const char *encoding)

DESCRIPTION

       Sets  the input encoding for all alpha fields. It is used when data is stored into a record. The encoding must be a name as it is described
       by the man and info pages of recode or iconv		  whatever is used. A common value is `latin1' on Unix systems. If you do not  set
       the encoding the function PX_get_data_alpha(3) will return field data in the original encoding otherwise it will recode the field data.

       This function is a short cut form PX_set_parameter(pxdoc, "inputencoding", encoding) and is deprecated.

RETURN VALUE

       Returns -2 if recoding is not supported and a value < 0 in case of an error, otherwise 0.

SEE ALSO

       PX_set_data_alpha(3), PX_set_targetencoding(3), PX_set_parameter(3), iconv(1), recode(1)
