? stdout isn't latin1-only either. But the encoding is already done, in the file \
itself.

> All in all; its a lot harder then just dumping input.

> I agree with David that this is not a good idea.

> You did not answer Davids question why this should stay open
Because it's especially useful for text outputs, like CSV/HTML/RTF/TXT etc.
