mac-roman is an obsolete encoding that was used in MacOS 9 and MacOS Classic systems of previous decades. Except in a very small and shrinking number of legacy applications, it isn't used in modern systems and hasn't been widely used for a long time. MacOS X systems generally use standard Unicode encodings, usually UTF-8, for external representations. Forget about mac-roman; it is not relevant. -- Ned Deily, n...@acm.org -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
