I am using MacOSX and up till now my files have a Western(Mac OS Roman) encoding, not UTF8. That works fime in ConTeXt-mkii by using \enableregime[mac]. But in ConTeXt-mkiv through luatex I get an error despite that same \enableregime[mac]: For an accented character like é the error is "! Text line contains an invalid utf-8 sequence."
How can I solve that other than changing all my files to UTF8 encoding?
Perhaps with a preprocessing (ctx) file that runs iconv, but luatex itself wants UTF-8, full stop.
regimes should work but maybe there is no mac regime; anyway ... moving to utf is the best option
What is to be preferred: with or without BOM? Hans van der Meer
