There is no argument available in Basic.

Searching for osl_getThreadTextEncoding leads me to OStringToOUString.

Grepping for that, I see quite some entries as e.g.
    rtl::OStringToOUString( aString, RTL_TEXTENCODING_UTF8 )
so I guess in the code it could be possible.

OK, thanks for the pointer anyway ;-)
