Hi

As has been noted here lately the current abispell packages isn't
working correctly for languages that doesn't use latin1. To deal with it
we need to know what character-set every language use.

Based on (www.cs.tut.fi/~jkorpela/8859.html and
czyborra.com/charsets/iso8859.html) I have made a little table. If
anyone has any corrections (I'm sure there'll be some) please speak up
and make the table correct.

Catalan                 iso 8859-1
Czech                   iso 8859-2
Danish                  iso 8859-1
German                  iso 8859-1
Greek                   iso 8859-7
English                 iso 8859-1
Esperanto               iso 8859-3
Spanish                 iso 8859-1
Frensh                  iso 8859-1
Irish gaelic            iso 8859-1
Italian                 iso 8859-1
Latvian                 iso 8859-4 or iso 8859-13
Dutch                   iso 8859-1
Norwegian               iso 8859-1
Norwegian(nynorsk)      iso 8859-1
Polish                  iso 8859-2 or iso 8859-13
Portuguese              iso 8859-1
Russian                 iso 8859-5
Swedish                 iso 8859-1

I'm not sure about the ones that have more than one possible encoding.
With Latvian we are currently using 13 so it seems to be reasonable to
keep doing that. So what about Polish?

When we have a confirmed correct table, I can incorporate the changes in
a new set of abispell builds.

Take care
