Description: This is a tiny wrapper around the pyjavaproperties package that does
        unicode en- and decoding transparently.
        
        The problem I tried to solve here is that Java Properties files only
        support ISO-8859-1 content. If you need unicode, you have to use
        something like `native2ascii`_ or `propedit`_ for Eclipse which
        converts content from unicode to ascii and stores it into the 
        respective file. In Python, obviously, you want the actual unicode
        data and not the encoded version of the prop value and this is
        exactly what this here does.
        
        To use it simply import the ``Properties`` class from the
        ``pyjavapropertiesu`` module instead of ``pyjavaproperties`` and use
        the ``getProperty`` method as before.
        
        Please note, though, that the data within the internal dict in the Properties
        class is still encoded.
