From d5ddf1adefea7c5f27b179bcf3b596775a5b4506 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Wolfram Schneider Date: Sat, 7 Mar 1998 21:04:39 +0000 Subject: Add a link to my bibliographic character sets patches for ISO 5426:1983 and Z39.47-1993/ANSEL/USMARC. Both characters sets use 2 bytes for non-US characters. The Library of Congress use ANSEL for their web gateway. With this patches you should be able to read the search results for german, french and spain (...) books. --- converters/recode/pkg-descr | 17 +++++++++++++++++ 1 file changed, 17 insertions(+) (limited to 'converters') diff --git a/converters/recode/pkg-descr b/converters/recode/pkg-descr index 96598c30c9c5..d6a30ea507dc 100644 --- a/converters/recode/pkg-descr +++ b/converters/recode/pkg-descr @@ -4,3 +4,20 @@ offending characters or fall back on approximations.
