It turns out that glibc supports CP1125. I never heard of it before your posts here but it doesn't surprise me any. The conversion CP1125 <-> UTF-8 appears to be working 100% so far. However I don't see any mention of it at IANA; http://www.iana.org/assignments/character-sets
For the record I am keeping your MSGs as CP1125 and only do the conversions when I quote. I *NEVER* mess with the originals and neither does any code here that I am currently using.

Understood. What do you need to make it happen? I am unsure what the real problem is and throwing Russians under the bus isn't going to help ... even if they deserve it. ;-)
PG> And the FTS about charsets too.
Unfortunetly that one might be a tad harder to pull off especially if it isn't listed at IANA. As I said previously, it is an obscure encoding, or at least it is in this part of the world and without IANA support ... ????
