Do you need TextEncoder? about noble-curves

[paulmillr]

I'm using it from a pure v8 runtime

What's that? Can you describe why?

Text Encoder is used in sister repositories, such as scure-base and noble-hashes and i'm positive charCodeAt is not 1:1 replacement.

It's just because I'm using it from within an app that embeds v8 for the purpose of making plugins. Then I'm simply using your library to validate some digital signatures to make sure they're valid

Yeah, I think it only works for ascii. I think that's all you need for nobel-curves (cause it's just some of the hardcoded DST strings and what not, I think). But since you need it anyway for the other libraries, it is probably not reasonable for you to try avoid using TextEncoder just for my esoteric usecase. Actually the fact you always use utf8ToBytes instead of using TextEncoder throughout the code base makes it super easy to maintain a patch, so I shouldn't complain 👍
