Hi,
Does anyone know of any Unicode encode/decode error handler that does a
better replace job than the default replace error handler?
For example I have an iso-8859-1 string that has an 'e' with an accent
(you know, the French 'e's). When I use s.encode('ascii', 'replace') the
'e' will be replaced with '?'. I would prefer to be replaced with an 'e'
even if I know it is not 100% correct.
If only this letter would be the problem I would do it manually, but
there is an entire set of letters that need to be replaced with their
closest ascii letter.
Is there an encode/decode error handler that can replace all the
not-ascii letters from iso-8859-1 with their closest ascii letter?
Thanks a lot,
Ray
