            On my version (5.3) the UserGuide2.pdf, Chapter 9, has several sections dealing with Unicode issues:

            “Compatibility with Previous Releases”

            “Using Tcl 8.3.1 Unicode Features”

            “European Character Set Support”

            Seach for the terms like: ‘encoding’, ‘utf-8’, ‘non-ASCII’, ‘fconfigure’

            There were various work-arounds.  Maybe you don’t need them now with 5.5, or maybe you switched platforms and the system encodings are different.  (ISO8859-1 vs CP1252)
