Constant Values for Encoding Parameters in EZscript

EZscript supports specific character set encodings. Use encoding values provided in the following table with functions that support an Encoding parameter.

The File functions FileRead, FileWrite, and FileAppend have optional encoding parameters that allow you to specify the preferred encoding.

The functions B64Encode, B64Decode, ChangeFromUnicode, and ChangeToUnicode also use the following encoding parameter values.

If you do not specify an encoding, the default value ENC_OEM is used.
