    Description

      Idea for possible enhancement:

      Source files with characters in encodings other than ASCII can easily get mangled, so it might be worth offering a tool to report these.

      For example, I have come across Javadoc which uses dashes instead of hyphens, and at some point the encoded dash got corrupted.
