Research direction

Review revision 6ffca35 and the file lists in the issue, including the Telepathy, Telepathy.Tests, LoadTests, project, and documentation files. Normalize the listed files to ANSI while preserving Telepathy/VERSION as UTF-8, then verify that every file uses the intended encoding without changing its content.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Currently (revision 6ffca35) the source, project and text files are in different encodings - which is inconsistent and might be confusing.

I suggest to convert all files to ANSI encoding - except the file "VERSION" which cannot be converted to ANSI without loss because it includes Unicode-art (tableflips).

The following files are in ANSI encoding:

.gitignore
appveyor.yml
LICENSE
README.md
Telepathy.sln
LoadTests/LoadTest.csproj
Telepathy/ConnectionState.cs
Telepathy/MagnificentReceivePipe.cs
Telepathy/MagnificentSendPipe.cs
Telepathy/Pool.cs
Telepathy/Telepathy.csproj
Telepathy/ThreadFunctions.cs
Telepathy.Tests/MagnificentReceivePipeTests.cs
Telepathy.Tests/MagnificentSendPipeTests.cs
Telepathy.Tests/PoolTests.cs
Telepathy.Tests/UtilsTest.cs

The following files are in UTF-8 BOM encoding:

LoadTests/Main.cs
LoadTests/README.md
LoadTests/RunClients.cs
LoadTests/RunServer.cs
Telepathy/Client.cs
Telepathy/Common.cs
Telepathy/EventType.cs
Telepathy/Log.cs
Telepathy/NetworkStreamExtensions.cs
Telepathy/Server.cs
Telepathy/Utils.cs
Telepathy.Tests/TransportTest.cs
Telepathy.Tests/Telepathy.Tests.csproj

The following files are in UTF-8 encoding (no BOM):

Telepathy/VERSION
