    I need to listen on a file written from an external program using Unicode.

    Aside the skipToEnd, add the “encoding” with UTF8 default to be used opening and reading the underlying file.

Hi, and thanks for the feedback.

We will discuss the matter internally, and we will update you here.
It might take up to a few days.

Thanks.

We added this feature request to our backlog.
We don’t have an ETA, though, and that can take some time to implement and release. Thank you for your patience.
We will update you here once it is ready.

Thanks.
