a totally innocent thread about 日本語 books

#14
If we were to assume that someone had stumbled upon a batch of raw txt files just lying around online, what would explain their inability to view the files?

They're (theoretically) all appearing as ???? and symbols, but this person has not previously had any problems reading txt files- for example when they didn't download Harry Potter. Seems like it could be an encoding problem for this hypothetical person, who is using TextEdit on a Mac to open the files.

What could this person be doing wrong?
