Ar an t-ochtú lá de mí Eanair, scríobh Aidan Kehoe: Turns out this is stupidly difficult. A more practical approach is something like the following patch, which unconditionally loads the charset and coding system info for the further Latin character sets and encodings, both on compilation and on loading. Further changes that are probably appropriate; add in support for latin-iso8859-16, copy the coding system initialisation files into the mule-ucs package so we don’t have a circular dependency. (Part of the patch is an iso-2022-7 encoded file, which is why I’m not including the text in this UTF-8 encoded email.) -- “Ah come on now Ted, a Volkswagen with a mind of its own, driving all over the place and going mad, if that’s not scary I don’t know what is.”
