I just read your posting from 9 Aug 2004 14:18:16 -0000. Presumably you have solved your problem in the meantime. I haven't received any more recent digest from this list. Have you received some replies ?
As you know, character conversion from PC to Mac isn't straightforward, because the charsets (glyphs) do not match entirely. I have used a conversion table proposed by <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>. Infos were available at: ftp://ftp.sri.ucl.ac.be/pub/ISO.8859-1/MacISO.taBL.sea.hqx. I haven't checked the URL recently. An example of a conversion routine follows. It handles only the ISO8859-1 charset (96 chars), a subset of CP1252. Extending it to 128 chars is obvious. Bonne chance - - - #!/usr/local/bin/perl -w use strict; $_ = "j'ai mangÈ des mšres ý AlenÁon"; # ISO code print iso2mac($_),"\n"; # Mac code sub iso2mac # conversion iso8859-1 en Mac # arg1: string à convertir {my ($isoset,$macset); $isoset = join '', map{chr}(0xA0..0xFF); $macset = ' ¡¢£¤¥¦§¨©ª«¬®¯°±²³´µ¶·¸¹º»¼½¾¿ÀÁÂÃÄÅÆÇÈÉÊËÌÍÎÏÐÑÒÓÔÕÖ×ØÙÚÛÜÝÞßàáâãäåæçèéêëìíîïðñòóôõö÷øùúûüýþÿ'; eval "\$_[0] =~ tr/$isoset/$macset/"; return $_[0]; }1; __END__
