Reading in files

When reading in a file, EDT evaluates the character set of the catalog entry.

In compatibility mode, the file is only read if this character set is identical with EDT's current character set or if no data is present in the work files. The corresponding character set is then defined.
If data with a different character set is present in any of the other character sets then the file is not read in. The file is also not read if the character set is not supported, i.e. if in interactive mode, for example, it cannot be displayed at the terminal.
