Function for detect unicode type of file
While it's no generally need in case of ANSI and UTF-16 type, those files will open with unicode version of Autoit without problem, UTF-8 files without BOM (byte order mark) will cause Autoit open them as ANSI.
This function tries to detect if file that looks as ANSI is really ANSI or UTF-8. This done by checking for UTF-specific sequences. As referred in Wikipedia "The chance of a random sequence of bytes being valid UTF-8 and not pure ASCII is 3.1% for a 2 byte sequence", so this method is fairly safe. After determening that file is UTF-8 it's possible to read it as binary and convert to string with BinaryToString function.
Note, atm this function don't work with 3 and 4 byte sequences, that usually hold hieroglyphic symbols.
| $nResult = _GetUnicodeType($sFileName, $nReadSize = -1) | |
| Parameters | |
| $sFileName | file to check |
| $nReadSize | size in bytes to read from file More bytes - more reliable result, but longer processing, by default read full file. |
| Return value | |
| $nResult | 0 - ANSI 1 - UTF-8 2 - UTF-16 4 - UTF-32 |
| On error | |
| $nResult = -1 | Not supported file with 3 and 4 byte sequences. |

Direct DBF reader
This is an UDF for direct reading data from DBF tables to 2D array. Not the fastest thing on the world, but probably it's not possible to done it's faster in Autoit.
Benchmark: 5 Mb file with 6 fields and about 92000 records took about 13 seconds to load on Athlon 64 3000+.
Note: not always possible check if DBF have incorrect header data, so this most likely will crash on corrupt DBF files.
| $aData = _FileReadDBF($sFileName) | |
| Parameters | |
| $sFileName | DBF table file name |
| $nFlags | 1 - convert from OEM to ANSI 2 - strip leading and trailing witespaces |
| Return value | |
| $aData | 2D array, first row - names of fields |
| On error | |
| No decent way. | |

MP3 Tag reader
UDF retrieve tags from MP3. Finds and retrieves info from the v1, v1.1 and v2.x tags. Possibly will work with other files (not MP3) uses ID3V2 tags. For v2 tags UDF also try to extract record length, that may be helpfull to determine length of VBR files.

| Parameters | |
| $sFile | File name |
| Return value | |

MP3 info reader
UDF retrieve basic MP3 information: MPEG version, Layer, Bitrate, Frequency, Channel Mode, Duration (time and frames), CRC, Copyright and Original flags. Also works woth the MP2 and MPA files, because they all in one standard.
Unfortunately, I don't know how to get length of VBR files. And I not sure, that VBR check I used is correct.
