Oh okay. That’s BSD then.

Thanks, that looks promising… for cp1047 anyway.

No problem.

I didn’t have this initially (curious about the newline setting and
the handling of control characters in general) but I think I can work
with it now.

There’s one thing though… what about codepages that do NOT completely
map to latin1?

When does it error out, too?

Oh well, we’ll cross that when it’s there.

True, but e.g. cp1140 maps 0x9F to U+20AC which isn’t in the first 256
codepoints of Unicode…


But judging from how difficult you describe changing the codepage is,
I think we can work with what we have for now.
