windows-1255 or cp1255 is a superset of iso-8859-8-i (notice the i, which means that's logical Hebrew and not visual).

Meaning that Microsoft has extra chars in that encoding, mainly nikud.

hi,

Here is a thumb rull, for EVERY standart there is a Microsoft standart as well !
Now in this case iso8859-8 is 100% (as far as i know) the same as cp1255 with one 
exception: The name :)
and the code of charset type, ie when you need to state the name of the charset you 
will write cp1255 insted of iso8850-8.

is it possible to make gnus treat windows-1255 chaset as iso-8859-8 by
default? I am getting some messages encoded in windows-1255 with the
charset="windows-1255" (assuming its set properly) and I see junk in
the test. When I tell gnus to handle the article as iso-8859-8
everything renders fine.

I couldn't find how to tell gnus to use windows-1255, so I am assuming
that it just doesn't know it.

Also, how do I tell gnus to show all articles using iso-8859-8 by
default if there is no charset stated in the article?

I am using emacs bidi currently and gnus supplied by debian unstable.

Thanks
