Hi! I'm struggling with the TextConverter's API in Pharo :). I wanted to test the converters in Pharo, and I found the method #convertFromSystemString: that should (from its name) convert a Pharo String into an encoded version of it. (UTF8TextConverter default convertFromSystemString: 'á'). Funny thing, it does not do that. It does the opposite: it tries to convert an encoded string to a pharo string. And so it fails. Of course, its symmetrical version does what I want and behaves as the ZnUTF8Encoder :) (UTF8TextConverter default convertToSystemString: 'á') asByteArray "#[195 161]" ZnUTF8Encoder new encodeString: 'á' "#[195 161]" Question: - does the convertTo/From methods makes sense to you or It's just me that sees them inverted? - does it make sense to have the two versions of converters? Zn and the TextConverters do the same in my opinion (or maybe I'm confused :) ) Guille
