Hi,
Can you tell me what file format "cs_CZ", "sk_SK", "sv_SE" and "wo_SN" are encoded in? I was going to try
to fix it for my use, but can't open in a normal editor. I was doing a design test when these files tripped a non-POSIX portable character set code in my scanf()'s isspace(). I think they might be ISO8859-2 but not sure. Normal editor claims it can't be
open in UTF-8. I'd rather not second guess someone else's work, if I can. If it is ISO8859-2, I'll just decode/encode me a
UTF file to examine. Two other files have UTF8 encodings, which is no problem. Others do but weren't within scope of
the trap (comment character to first word after). I am only trying to verify the file parser is picking up exact data, and hopefully
not being corrupted by unusual codes, as some have been.
Thanks,
Steve
