Thanks Kovid. That explains a lot to me!
I recently had to re-edit a .epub created by calibre and had difficulty editing some minor textual changes no matter what I tried, using my so-called unicode compliant text editor, TextPad. It just didn't know how to handle those UTF-8 encoded characters. That's when I used 'recode' to solve this re-editing problem I encountered.
Thanks again, and it's a much better answer than "
It does that? "
