Sorry about that. > What we could do is add aliases 'x-ibm874' and 'windows_874' to > 'cp874'. I'm not sure whether 'ibm874' and > 'x-ibm874' are the same > thing. The references only mention 'x-ibm874'. The following document says the following are aliases: x-IBM874, cp874, ibm874, ibm-874, 874 http://www.java2s.com/Tutorial/Java/0180__File/DisplaysAvailableCharsetsandaliases.htm http://www.fileformat.info/info/charset/x-IBM874/index.htm In addition it seems that 'windows_874' is used (that's the one that raised this issue for me), but I've also seen references of windows-874, windows874 , WIN874: http://doxygen.postgresql.org/encnames_8c_source.html ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue17254> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
