"""
2.1: total rewrite for Unicode support; open in text mode with
an encoding passed in, input from the user, in textconfig, or
platform default, or open as binary bytes for arbitrary Unicode
encodings as last resort and drop \r in Windows end-lines if
present so text displays normally; content fetches are returned
as str, so need to encode on saves: keep encoding used here;

tests if file is okay ahead of time to try to avoid opens;
we could also load and manually decode bytes to str to avoid
multiple open attempts, but this is unlikely to try all cases;

encoding behavior is configurable in the local textConfig.py:

1. tries known type first if passed in by client (email charsets)


2. if opensAskUser True, try user input next (prefill wih defaults)


3. if opensEncoding nonempty, try this encoding next: 'latin-1', etc.


4. tries sys.getdefaultencoding() platform default next


5. uses binary mode bytes and Tk policy as the last resort
