Package: rss2mail Version: 1:2.60-6 Severity: wishlist Tags: patch Currently, rss2email choose one of 'US-ASCII', 'ISO-8859-1' and 'UTF-8' for the charset of e-mail.
'ISO-8859-1' is hard coded in rss2email.py, but I'd like to use the
charset 'ISO-2022-JP' instead of 'ISO-8859-1'.
The attached patch grants my wish. It defines new variable
PREFERRED_CHARSET for the chrset of e-mail prefferd over 'UTF-8'.
Please consider applying it.
Note: end-of-line of rss2email.py is dos-style (CR LF). Take care
when applying the patch.
Thanks,
