I'm going to have to add some kind of syntax for different text
encodings. Something like:

frame contains EBCDIC("test")

I don't know Unicode very well, so I don't know all the different types
of Unicode encodings, so I won't even guess as to what the names for
those "functions" would be, but they would follow the above example.

Of course, the exact syntax is open for discussion.
