Summary: Support for special character set

Initial Comment:
I'm not sure, but I think some charcters produce
errors. If you try

<!-- Un commentaire en fançais avec des accents : éèêë -->

you'll have a parsing error. Try a word with "é" and
then replace it by "e" : the error disapear. It's
perhaps a problem with my program but it's a strange
behaviour !

I have the same issue. The file is encoded with UTF-8 and I've 
forced the encoding using others like US-Ascii and ISO-899..

Also when I manually escape the character to &233; 
(example) it always unescapes to UTF-8 it looks like. 

My work around was simply to remove all high character 
values before a parse.

What encoding do you use, and what encoding is specified
in the input file?
