Issue with charset.bin #3

Closed kosfango closed 4 years ago

kosfango commented 7 years ago

charset.bin was not overwritten after "make install" command

ykaliuta commented 4 years ago

Would it make sense to remove internal recoding completely in favour of iconv? It can map 8bit -> multibyte but not back.

kosfango commented 4 years ago

It will be sad if it break ftn2rfc (e.g. 866->uft8)

ykaliuta commented 4 years ago

Well, at the moment it works with iconv only since I cannot remember 866->utf8 internal table (even if it is possible in practice).

kosfango commented 4 years ago

How ftn2rfc works now? It seems no issues with gating echomail from fidonet

ykaliuta commented 4 years ago

With iconv I guess, it's enabled by default.

kosfango commented 4 years ago

but not back.

I mean these words or it's about other things not for ftn2rfc?

ykaliuta commented 4 years ago

not utf8->8bits

kosfango commented 4 years ago

I think, in case of ftn2rfc, all modern nntp client software have uft8 support out of box and by default. In this case, it shouldn't be a disadvantage, but not for case rfc2ftn

kosfango commented 4 years ago

not utf8->8bits

Does Fidogate gating rfc2ftn without iconv uft8->866 now?
