Update to the wiki page: There's no need to manually hack an xml file to generate the enc.
According to the information here: <http://search.cpan.org/src/COOPERCL/XML-Encoding-1.01/maps/README> the XML::Encoding module comes with both a make_encmap to generate the xml from the unicode standard mapping, and the previously mentioned compile_encoding which generates the enc file. I have successfully created a windows-1255.enc file that way. >>>> These maps were generated by a perl script that comes with the module >>>> XML::Encoding, compile_encoding, from XML formatted encoding maps that >>>> are distributed with that module.
