Francois lemarchand sended me a little script to translate éà... into 8859-1 standard characters. I've included it in the addbiblio.pl script (when the system finds a biblio in the breeding farm) It seems to work. Things are definetly strange in char encoding.

I'm looking at the script. From the comments it looks like Francois' code is converting from ISO 5426 to ISO 8859-1. How are character sets handled in UNIMARC? I'm guessing there are more character sets than ISO 5426 which can be used. I just checked and Perl's Encode::* modules don't seem to handle ISO 5426 :( which is a shame. It is even more a shame that ISO doesn't make these standards public. I'm going to subscribe to perl-unicode@perl.org and see if I can find out more. //Ed -- Ed Summers aim: inkdroid web: http://www.inkdroid.org
