As long as you use a Latin encoding this should not make any problems 
(as long as the editor on the other system is able to open a file in 
the encoding you are using, but Latin1 will be available everywhere).
The best solution of course was to use UTF/Unicode in the first place, 
which will probably work nicely on the Mac side, but you might run into 
problems with windows editors not being able to open UTF files.

Best,
