Hi,

I've got to deal with a pretty huge XML-document, and to do so I use the
cElementTree.iterparse functionality. Working great.

Only trouble: The guys creating that chunk of XML - well, lets just say they
are "encodingly challanged", so they don't produce utf-8, but only cp1252
instead, together with some weird name (Windows-1252) for that. That is not
part of the standard codecs module. cp1252 is, of course.

But that won't work for iterparse. So currently, I manually change the
encoding given to utf-8, and use a stream-recoder. 

However, I was wondering if I could teach cElementTree about that encoding
name. I tried to register cp1252 under the name Windows-1252, but had no
luck - cET won't buy it.

Any suggestions?

Diez
