function chilkatExample() {

    //  It's best not to use non-usascii literal strings in source code.
    //  Instead, use a binary encoded representation of the string.

    //  This is the string "44ης Οδός, αρ.2" encoded as quoted-printable.
    //  Use Chilkat's online tool to prepare encoded strings: Online Binary Encoder
    //  Note: For strings that have very few us-ascii chars, it's better to use base64 encoding instead of quoted-printable.
    var s = "44=CE=B7=CF=82 =CE=9F=CE=B4=CF=8C=CF=82, =CE=B1=CF=81.2";
    var sb = new chilkat.StringBuilder();
    sb.AppendEncoded(s,"quoted-printable");

    //  For programming languages where strings are exposed bytes, you can tell Chilkat globally
    //  to give you the utf-8 byte representation.
    //  For programming languages where strings are opaque objects, such as C#, it doesn't matter.
    var glob = new chilkat.Global();
    glob.DefaultUtf8 = true;

    var s = sb.GetAsString();
