We cannot rely on default encoding to be the same on all systems. This can be a problem in Panorama if the encoding used to write the filepath is not the same as the default encoding on the JVM. Panorama compares file paths read from the .skyd file to the file paths for sample files to get the right chromatogram for a precursor result.
From Brendan:
I think we need to bump the SKYD format version number to change to UTF8. We should talk about whether we can do that before releasing v2.5 or we need to wait.
Then we should also talk about what we should do for decoding this path in SKYD 6 and earlier format. Probably safest is just to use whatever encoding is default for English (US).
