Not too off-topic, IMHO, as it concerns the still uncomplete penetration of UTF encoding in e-mail practices. The message quoted used, as usual in Esperanto, a 7-bit surogate along with cp1252. It is still very rare to properly presented esperanto in e-mails (unlike, f.i., in webpages). Replacing U+0302 with U+0079 (seldom others) is, BTW, not a transliteration, but a surogate. AFAIK first used in the 1920ies for Esperanto telegraphy. -- ____. Ant�nio MARTINS-Tuv�lkin | ()| <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> |####| R.
