Did you check for that? Yes, I checked. This MIK encoding is a big misundestanding of our scientist whos didn't have any idea of what they done. With some existing encoding have some success but missing letters are a lot and the text is unreadable at all. With GUI programs there are no problems, because we use cp1251 or UTF-8, but there still have DOS text files which used MIK encoding. That why I'm tring to make this filter, to help people with such files to transfer easy their files to OOo. regards -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Hristo Simeonov Hristov Leader of OpenOffice.org - Bulgarian GnuPG key 0xD0D895EB: 0282 D8D0 90D3 963F E57E B0A7 2670 88D9 D0D8 95EB --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
