Greeting!

The document on this website provide an example on how to get 
webpage information by std.net.curl.It is quite straightforward:

[code]
import std.net.curl, std.stdio;

void main(){

// Return a string containing the content specified by an URL
string content = get("dlang.org");

writefln("%s\n",content);

readln;
}
[/code]

When I change get("dlang.org") to get("yahoo.com"),everything 
goes fine;but when I change to get("yahoo.com.cn"),a runtime 
error said bad gbk encoding bla...

So my very simple question is how to retrieve information from a 
webpage which could possibily contains asia font (like Chinese 
font)?

Thanks for your help in advance.

Regards,
Sam

I'm not really sure but try:
wstring content = get("dlang.org");

Also make sure your terminal is set up for unicode.

Sorry,no,it does not work,I tried to print the content to DFL
TextBox control but still the same issue.

It's simple this line you "convert" whatever site content was to 
unicode. Problem is that "convert" is either broken or it's simply a 
cast whereas it should re-encode source as unicode. So the way around is 
to get it to array of bytes and decode yourself.

 writefln("%s\n",content);

 readln;
 }

I think it's not "font" but encoding problem.

 Thanks for your help in advance.

seems like
ubyte[] data = get!(AutoProtocol, ubyte)("your-site.cn");
//should work, sorry I'm on windows and curl doesn't work here for me
then you work with your data, decode and whatever, at least this:
writeln(data);//will not throw but will print bytes
