Okay, I missed that you were originally trying to use the file with
Properties.load(). Properties.load() uses an InputStream but assumes
that the character encoding is ISO 8859-1. It assumes this because it
assumes the file was written by Properties.store() which writes using an
OutputStream with ISO 8859-1 encoding. EDTF will work with a file in ISO
8859-1, but will create a new file in CCSID 37 by default.

Well, the problem is I don't want to go directly after java strings ...
I want the Property object to go after java strings.
