Key encoding #6

Hi HCP, was tracking down some comments you wrote prior where you were digging through the source - I cannot seem to find copies of any source so I figured I would reach out. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1942459.0

There is a wallet encoded in early 2014, with a non english keyboard, supposedly with english alphanum etc.

This was throwing us for a loop because we cannot find how the private keys are encoded (can you paste links to source for private encoding/decryption?)

Per here: https://github.com/Multibit-Legacy/multibit/wiki/Export-and-limited-import-of-private-keys Keys are saved in an ASCII encoded text file

We are trying to derive what would happen if someone typed a non english letter in a password.

Appreciate the help and cool scripts.
