Re: ConcreteElement output(OutputStream) does not use codeset?

hi Abre

i'm glad that you've found ECS useful. the attachment didn't seem to make 
it. could you try again after zipping or tarring?

it would also make it a lot easier for me to evaluate your patch if you 
could supply a CVS diff -u (against CVS HEAD) rather than the modified 
source.

TIA
