If you later want to convert to UTF-8, you can use the GConv API. It is based on iconv and iconv can give you a list of encodings (which might differ on other systems!). Try this on the command-line: 'iconv -l'. Salut, Sven _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
