Hi, This comes first as a question: is there currently a way to autodetect encodings in text files / strings?
I realize there isn't, so would like ask if someone's interested on going forward with this. Mozilla has a great detector, written in C, which has been ported to other languages, like Java (http://jchardet.sourceforge.net/) and Python (http://chardet.feedparser.org/) for instance. A port exists in C# but is very outdated (http://www.conceptdevelopment.net/Localization/NCharDet/). This library would be of great help to many applications, mostly those working with files in different encodings, but basically any application reading plain-text files. -- Pedro Castro http://www.pedrocastro.org _______________________________________________ Mono-list maillist - [email protected] http://lists.ximian.com/mailman/listinfo/mono-list
