Ok, I found it:

You might like to look at some of the encoding conversion scripts at:

N.B. For sorting utf-8 Arabic you might find the perl module
`Sort::ArbBiLex' useful

Yes it is, and it shows. But since I'm up and not having any
particular urge to go to bed in this very moment, here's a
tested alternative that works here:

Ok, get some sleep;-) Anyhow, I fixed the line break (is the space between
tilda and `s' correct?)

Just a quick reply (it's bedtime over here): there may be 2 problems. 1
is that the mail program put in an unwanted linebreak after the =~
part, just remove it; it should all be one line. And then: you'll need a
fairly recent version of perl for it to work, what do you get when you
do
perl --versi

Idris,
I know a bit of perl and would love to help. However, I fear that
sending us your stuff via mail will be a bit difficult because the utf-8

Thnx 4 such a speedy reply!

Idris,
I know a bit of perl and would love to help. However, I fear that
sending us your stuff via mail will be a bit difficult because the utf-8
chracters get transformed into gibberish. Could you send the hexadecimal
code of the characters you want to convert? Or I could simply give you

Hi gang,
For Arabic we use a Latin transcription in Aleph/(e-)Omega (or even
ArabTeX) unless one of the encoding filters like utf-8 is used. Even for
utf-8 files, however, it would be very useful to be able to convert a
utf-8 file to Latin transcription for further processing by
Aleph/(e-)Omega
Does Unicode have all the coverage you need, first of all?
In any case, Unicode support will be a bit more work than supporting
the
nice TIPA fonts.
Unicode should cover all existant symbols, as you know.
Perhaps you could try the free SIL fonts, esp. the nice and well-filled
"Gentium" font, see
