Well, I'm afraid 'virtually any case' is a bit of exaggeration. glibc iconv and iconv in libiconv can also deal with 'transliteration', but I'm afraid piconv can't do that, yet :-) Another minor note about documentation. I forgot to mention that 'EUC' in EUC-JP/EUC-KR stands for 'Extended Unix Code'. I'm sure it's the original term used by AT&T because I've seen 'Extended Unix Code' on many occasions over many years. There's at least one place in Encode doc. that 'Extended Unix Character' is used in place of that. Cheers, Jungshik
