No, it was utf-8, but was rendered as a Chinese glyph.

By using an editor that supports utf-8

You keep asking internationalization questions on this list and people 
by their graciousness answer you. But as far as I can tell you haven't 
made any effort to understand how internationalization works. Until you 
understand it you're going to keep beating your head against a wall, 
plus it's not our responsibility to teach you this material, it's your 
job to learn it.

Wrong. The utf-8 encoding of infinity is the 3
octet sequence: 0xE2 0x88 0x9E

Hint, you can't just type the above into a file!!!!
