Below are a few examples of garbled Cyrilic from a web page (this
happens to be a CD track list).
Is there a simple direct way to transliterate or re-encode these into
proper Cyrillic characters using BBEdit? I've tried all the charsets
in the 'Reopen using encoding' submenu, but to no avail.
The way to do it is surely to get the pager to display properly in
the browser by changing the encoding there, not in BBEdit. In
FireFox: View->Character Encoding.
What encoding is declared in the <head> of the page when you view the
source? Does the sewrver specify a character set when you do
curl --head "http://.../";
in Terminal?
The problem may be a simple error in the meta declaration or some
sort of double encoding may have taken placew which needs to be
unraveled. If the worst comes to the worst you can use Perl/Encode
in BBEdit to sort it out, but you need to have a good idea what has
gone wrong first. What is the URL?
