Thus, it needs to convert HTML files into Unicode before processing them and it needs converters. The default compilation of mnoGoSearch omits converters to Unicode from east Asian encodings (ISO-2022-JP, EUC-KR, Big5, GB2312), and this is why it cannot index nor search east Asian pages. Compilation with the ./configure option will enable this. Though Japanese and Chinese have further problem (problem 2), Korean should be solved by this. --- Tomohiro KUBOTA <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> http://www.debian.or.jp/~kubota/
