It seems that the current version does only support the default character set for the data input stream.

Could you add a parameter that allows to set the character set of the PartitioningReader to for example "UTF-8". This would IMHO really enhance the usage scenario in terms of internationalized data.

According to my understanding the right place is
jawk\src\org\jawk\jrt\JRT.java: line 483
Example:
pr = new PartitioningReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in, "UTF-8")

However I didn't oversee the parameter handling and if there are other place which are relevant.

Would be great if you could consider this for the next release.

Thanks and Regards,
Thorsten
