I wouldn't trust this table. Microsoft is on record of implementing the code pages with slight variations compared to other references for some encodings (in particular the Asian ones). So unless there is an actual documented need for a certain alias (and preferably a demonstration that Microsoft's interpretation of the code page is the same as Python's), I would advise against adding such aliases. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue6058> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
